Specialized Crux Review

A few things before I jump into this:
-I purchased all of this equipment myself (I'm under no obligation to say anything positive, or negative, about this equipment, this is simply my opinion/reaction to it)
-I'm comparing this frame against the 2008 Specialized Tricross Pro I've ridden the past two seasons
-I'm 5'9" and 140 lbs (read:  I'm not going to be able to flex things the way you big guys can)
