Ridley Fenix disc?

Anyone ridden or got one of these bikes? I've been offered a very good price from a LBS on either the 105 or Ultegra disc version.
My local lbs's don't do test rides, so I've sat on :shock: ..an Ultegra synapse disc, a Giant defy and a roubiax. All seem nice enough but a bit taller at the front than I would like. The Ridley dealer has no Fenix's in stock and would be ordering in for me though he did try very hard to persuade me on a Bianchi Sempre Pro - which was nice enough, but no disc brakes. Though I'm not sure if I should wait a few years before buying a disc braked road bike, he was offering a good deal on the Bianchi too, so maybe...
So anyway back to the original question, anyone have any experience or knowledge of the Ridley Fenix?
Thanks.

I believe road.cc had a ride on one and liked it.
I really like the look of the frameset and the geometry seems bang on.0 -
I think you'll see a lot of good deals on non-disc bikes in the next year or so... 8)Facts are meaningless, you can use facts to prove anything that's remotely true! - Homer0
