Ok crew,hankering after one now....need a full carbon any horror stories or is the news all good.Riding a cannondale six 13 at the mo which will still remain my best bike...just need another not so best bike.my hack/work bike is an alloy race ribble which is fine on shorter runs but want to try a full carbon.......and i love the whole felt ar4 look.;).
Well did a 50 mile run on her sunday morning and all i can say is wow,what a comfy ride.....dead quiet...and really smooth.My ride up till now has been a cannondale six 13 and i hate to say the felt blows it out of the water in some areas......still love my cannondale and will never sell it but it does show how things move on 
Glad you are enjoying it, did you notice any flex climbing? I still really like the look of them, like all Felt's they do look like a good vfm bike.
I am still torn between carbon and Ti, and if I go carbon the choices are bewildering! I had a chat with an LBS today who offered some great advice; 'forget choosing a brand, have a bike fitting so we know what you best measurements and dimensions would be, we can then look for a manufacturer who makes a bike close to your ideal fit!'. Sound common sense I think.....

Bet the closest fit turns out to be a pinarello dogma 2 I am still torn between carbon and Ti, and if I go carbon the choices are bewildering!

Ref the frame flex......i was expecting some on climbs to be honest as i have loads on my cannondale 
....but none on the felt.There were a few little niggles where cables rattled,but this was sorted out with a few frame protectors.What i have noticed this week is they hate wet roads 
....stood up on a little climb last night which was wet and the back end kept loosing traction,might be the tyres will have to keep an eye on this.
