JMO, but like cars no one is going to be really good at everything

I've narrowed it down to 3 fot most uses

1) custom Ti, w/ semi compact ultra gearing. Great for really fast group rides where you are really hammering. very edgy race geometry. Great in the mountains and on fast windy roads. Almost all of my PR's were set on this bike. Fit and light weight and gearing are everything.

2) Cannondale Synapse all carbon from wheels to the bars to the seat, Di2, really nice for more relaxed rides not as fast or edgy but you can go forever w/o any issues., Hate the deep wheels in cross winds, love them everywhere else.

3)Fugi Absolute, al frame, 28mm tires, platform pedals, flat bars, 105 group set. Not fast, not comfy for long rides but fine for shorter rides in sloppy and/or cooler weather
