Ill post a review when it comes but I've spent months deciding....I live 15 mins from ribble so I can 'overcome' any customer care issues.
I'll only be able to spend a grand once so it's important to get a bike that you go 'wow'. And I just preffered the stealth to the fc5.

May be it will be useful for somebody else:
I bought an FC7 in the middle 2012. It comes with the same exact frame of FC5, but with a SRAM rival groupset and Mavic Aksium wheels.
I totally loved it: very fast, reactive and light, even if the main difference on the Triban is that the full carbon frame makes it a lot more confortable on long rides.
The only thing that I never liked was the compact crankset 50/34: Im' a little big (180cm/80kg) so the 34 was allways to little on soft climbs and too big on hard climbs. More, shifting from 50 to 34 was a source of trouble each time, due to the fact that you pass from too hard to too soft in a fraction of second.
At the end of january it was stolen, so I bought a Triban 5 to replace it, and I discovered to have a better feeling with the triple chainset 50/39/30.
