Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

yes, one bike can. i also have a 29er mountain bike that has to have the front wheel removed to fit, and it gets muddy when out on the trails so i like this option better. now i can carry 3 bikes and 3 people, instead of 3 people and only one bike.

Worth every cent. First time I've ever geeked out over a floor pump.

Why thank you. I freely admit it was one of those bling motivated purchases. My aluminum non aero "climbing" wheels are actually lighter.

Sugoi RSE short. Not too excited per say as this is my 2nd pair. Suits me just perfect after couple of washes... (don't know what it is but at first wash, it was meh... after couple of ride, it became super comfy).

Dig the S-Works, but why weigh it w/o bottle cages, and saddle? Seems pretty silly, also seems rather heavy.

Looks like he weighed what he got, frame, fork, headset, seatpost; so 1560 grams seems pretty reasonable
