Well you Trek folks might be interested to know that Allan left here to pontificate in the Shimano forum. It appears he went there to "expert" on Shimano even though it appears he rides Campy.
Allan a few points that were not mentioned. First the Litespeed in the first Tour was not a big secret or was it ever meant to be. The facts was that Trek did not have a time trial frame at that point. Their production techniques are such and the expense is so high they moved slowly in its development. They now make the time trial bikes. That wasn't a very good example of a disguised paint job as it was well known and not something that Trek ever attempted to hide.
Next where did Beloki come from in this thread? One person replied how you jumped all over the place. The jump to Beloki's 02 Giant was bizarre.
You claim that no carbon bike can climb like an aluminum bike. I suggest you ride a 5900 or a Madone as my friends who truly know frames have and find out for yourself. Or ride a Calfee which is my ride and magnificent.
Your problem seems to be that you speak from conjecture and not first hand knowledge. That is not good in a forum where the vast majority of us refrain from conjecture and stay with what we know from experience. Gary is the perfect example. His endorsement of a Trek knowing how many bikes he has ridden and owned is one of the most impressive statements I have heard of their frames.
