Got the Inflite CF SL 7 a few weeks back and I can say that I am loving it. Saw earlier posts about it not being good for road or gravel and was confused. I have done 300 kms so far in both road and gravel conditions. What I've seen so far is, it can do both very well. For gravel, I will recommend 38 mm tyres. For road, perhaps those chasing marginal gains could have 30/32 mm slicks. The gearing is well suited for rolling terrain. Did my usual loop of 50 kms with 650 mts of elevation gain and I was able to complete it within 1 minute of the the average time I would take with my Canyon Endurace for the same route.

Additionally,I never found the bike to be twitchy as people suggested. Only difference to my Endurace is, the geometry is slightly more aggressive, but I haven't had any problem so far. If you are thinking of getting one, I will highly recommend. Looks cool and rides cool as well :).
