I don't really know the specs well enough but I'll have a bash here...
Looks - I'd go for the Cube
Fastest - Cervelo (on reputation anyhow)
Value for money - no idea!
I wouldn't race any of these bikes - I'd happily stand around at events feining injury!!
As for running gear... surely you'd have to wait for January '09 to get the Shimano Di2 electronic shifting kit. Sounds ideal for tris... you can get shift buttons on your aero-bars AND on your base bars, so you can shift when climbing and shift when... umm.. shifting! Bound to be bloody expensive too.
Bars? Dunno... probably back to Xentis again, though I've heard a few reports of stress problems with their aero bars.
What do you think, treefrog? Are you going to plan for a Di2 upgrade, or come up with some new 2009 'electronic' creation? (Bet you go for a whole new bike mate!) [8D]
Want to look different on the race course!! This is the only reason why i am swayed with bikes like the Cube and Kuato and recently the Ridley Dean.

Pah!
None of them are red.
I have a tri in two weeks, and living on the bike course has allowed me to get out and bike it a number of times. I went out this evening with the aim of doing it as fast as possible with no concern for a run afterwards. I was putting in full effort and chugging along at approximately 42Kph when i guy glided past me on a B2 pro, he looked like he wasnt putting in any effort at all, and I presume I will be racing against him in 2 weeks. I think I know who it was, last years winner as it happens, now I have never described an inanimate object as sexy, but wow, that was a dam good looking bike! and obviously pretty fast too!
