"This is probably the most inexpensive full carbon bike you can buy. It has a good component set and a good geometry that is both powerful and comfortable. Overall I think that it is one of the best mid-level bikes available and is probably the best value for money out there."bigscarymonster
Fit
It has a nice compact frameset and is very comfortable. It also has a good, low front end.
Comfort
It's plenty comfortable for a race road bike.
Adjustability
The same as any other road bike.
Durability
Everything has held up well to me and, again, I am a big guy. Even the light, inexpensive, wheelset has held up great.
Value
I don't think there is a more inexpensive full carbon bike out there. For the groupset and extras alone you are usually looking at at least the price of this carbon beauty.
Appearance
The paint scheme could be a bit nicere but the finish on it is great and the white/cream color is gorgeous.
Customer Service
The shop I got it from was great. Mortl's sports in Iron Mountain, MI if anyone was wondering. I don't really know about the actual Schwinn company.
Performance
So far I average about 19 on it during races. Keep in mind that this is a guy who hadn't rode for a few years and weighs closer to 300 than 200.
Strengths
It is an inexpensive, decently light, full carbon beauty. The geometry is very comfortable and the components are great.
Weakness
The paint job could look a bit nicer.

Quality of Construction
This bike has a 105 component set and ritchey comp. extras topped off with a Selle San Marco saddle. Although the carbon isn't the lightest out there it is still pretty good. It's plenty strong for me and I'm a big guy.
