It's second-hand, a few years old. I'll try and scrounge some photos up. It's one of those weird half-aluminum/half-carbon frames.

I'm assuming you mean aluminium frame with a carbon fork and seat-post? That's not weird!

Nope, the actual frame changes from aluminum to carbon.

Ok that's weird. Interesting though, and looks like really nice components. Rides nice?

Weird, the picture was cropped. If you view the photo in a new window, the whole thing shows.
Yep, everything is Dura-Ace except for the pedals in the photo, which are 105. I replaced the pedals with CB Candy 2's last night.
I'm not a fine conoisseur of bikes, but I'll say it rides good enough for me. Stupid fast too.
