^ This is sort of my dilema... I have not heard of Orbea but the bike shop told me if you're spending that kind of dough, it should be all carbon. Orbea's high-end bikes are really popular and highly rated but i have not heard of anything on this model... so i am hesitant to put $2k into a bike i literally have no information about. ALSO, the wheels that come on this high end carbon $2k bike are.... maybe $200 at best.... really cheap wheels... so that makes me wonder why they would put such high end parts/frame together with such low end wheels...... this tells me i have to spend $2k and another few hundred to get nicer wheels.... if that's the case, i may as well just jump to the 7.9 ......................

why are you upgrading the wheels on your 7.7? any reason?
