I rode both bikes back to back today, so you asked at the right time. The Cannonouija's stiffness has that "right now" feeling of power when you mash, but the Litespeed gives more back with each stroke. Titanium feels a lot better after 50 miles, but I still like the feel of a stiff aluminum bike in general. I think 6/4 is a nice compromise.
