Trek 5900 Frameset 
Posted: 25/09/03
'LIGHT, FAST, STIFF AS...'
Strengths:
Scarily light, but still inspires confidence, very smooth and comfortable, climbs and accelerates like a rocket
Weaknesses:
Cheap headset that cannot be changed due to 1.25" lower bearing, lets in and retains water (i have to 'empty' mine after each wet ride by turning the frame upside down, removing the seatpost and shaking!)
Overall:
Very fast, smooth ride, looks great, seriously light, what more could you want from a road bike?!

RockShox World cup

'LIGHT, SMOOTH, GORGEOUS AND FLEXY!'
Strengths:
Stupidly light, look fantastic, after initial bedding in-issues they are awesomely smooth, remote lock-out is great, strange vibration absorbtion by carbon
Weaknesses:
Bit flexy, but what do you expect of a 2.5lb fork!
Overall:
Great forks, worth the money (Retail is actually £650, not £1000 as quoted here) if you want light and fast, buy these, buy them now.

Trek 5900 
Posted: 26/08/03
'WORTH EVERY ONE OF THOSE 350000 PENNIES!'
Strengths:
speed, comfort, weight, acceleration, climbing
Weaknesses:
stuck with sh*t cane creek headset, because of oversized lower bearing (1.25")
Overall:
This is an awesome bike, it is so quick and stiff, but comfortable enough for longer rides, this really is worth the money!
