It's a 58, and 16.3 lbs without pedals, I've only swapped out the saddle for Fizik Arione CX and the stem, which everyone seems to have an issue about on this forum.
That's the thing with these forums, people prejudge without any context. I've only picked up cycling 3 months ago. I bought a hybrid, a trainer and trailer to pull my 2 kids, lost 40 lbs from 240 to 200 at 6'1, now love the sport. Bought the Cervelo as a reward to myself, and no, I don't have a snake spine, and am still adjusting to the new position.
The LBS did a fitting and suggested I take it easy and we'll gradually adjust. I don't race (yet), but love the sport, and yes, I know it can be flipped...
