I've had mine just over two weeks now...  So far, so good...  Definitely a fast, responsive ride.  The geometry takes a little getting used to -- especially the seat tube position ahead of the bottom bracket.  But, I think I have about got the saddle dialed in, finally.

Speaking of saddles...  What the heck is Trek thinking putting an ultra-padded "lux" saddle on a hard core racing bike!?!?!  Swapped that thing out right away!

Hey ClydesDiesel:

When you said...
    "The geometry takes a little getting used to -- especially the
    seat tube position ahead of the bottom bracket. "
...what did you mean or compared to what, exactly?

I reviewed Trek's website & compared the frame geometry of the Madone 5.2 & 5.5.  All the angles were exactly the same.

Could you clarify, please?  Thanks.
