I used to ride the Scott CR1 and moved to a Cervelo RS. Cervelo RS hands down. Stiffer in the BB and the chain stay area while much more comfortable. The bike climbs like a dream and cruises very nicely on flats.

Tried both the rs and the CR1. I ended up on the Cr1 because the hardware was better for the price in particular the wheels. I believe 80% of your ride is up to the wheels.

I don't believe the BB stiffness argument. Maybe 1% difference between the two and if you can feel that then you are awesome.
