Hey bud! In short: YEP. I love it.
I sometimes wish I'd specced it with a compact crankset, just for a liitttle extra gear on steeper hills, but it's fine really.
Generally I find it really comfortable. Aluminium's reputation for harshness doesn't apply, I don't think. However I'd say it's stiff in the right places as it climbs very well. It's extremely light, but it is a small frame which helps there.
If you're on the fence - go for it. I've got a mate that took the "I must have carbon" approach, and the result is that for their budget they got an inferior groupset on a cheaply made (cube) frame, contributing to far heavier bike overall.
