    Not ridden one I'm afraid but I think they look excellent and wouldn't mind one.
    Enquired as to a frame only cost so I could keep my Campag groupset and was told £1700 ! Perhaps they don't want to sell frame only cus they won't sell many at that price.
    Have you considered the new Bianchi Ti frame ? rrp about £1200 so you could build up for a similar price as the Ti Cube with Ultegra (£2199)

    i rode an aerial a week or so ago and found it a bit twitchy, but then i've not ridden drops in 15 years or so. on the same day i tried a specialized allez and it seemed more relaxed. i think the cube is more out and out road bike, rather than sportive geometry.

    cracking kit on them though, and the peloton is a nice looking bike.

    I had one on order but the frame builder was screwing cube over and they couldn't get in contact with them, hence forth all titanium frames were scrapped for the current set of orders, I even spoke to the cube rep about it and he also told me the frames were being made in Italy.

    The 2009 titanium frames are being made in America by a frame builder I wasn't allowed to know, but they are supposed to be good I think they will be previewed in September.
