It's a 56cm, but it was an employee purchase and cannot really resell it for a year......at least not if I want to get another one. That's one thing the majority owner of the store is quite strict about........and the frameset is hanging over the front counter, sort of a display/demo of the frameset. But, it is wicked light......but not as light as the 5900 frameset.

The Trek OCLV framesets seem to me like probably the best amateur racing frames on earth, in that they are very light, ride nicely (I definitely prefer CF to oversize AL in this respect), are adequately strong, and have the awesome crash replacement policy of Trek standing behind them. I prefer steel or ti for their lifetime ruggedness, but if I were racing I would probably be riding OCLV.
