Somec bicycles

My long-term dream has always been a Tek 5XXX, but I have an opportunity
to get a really great deal on a Somec. On paper, or at least via
electrons, they look like pretty good bikes. Anybody know if there is a
model comparable to the Trek, or actually, where I can find out anything
whatsoever about them before I go down and try one? Some info at the URL
below.
