I can weigh the bike sometime but the weight will be as I ride it on a real world daily basis (fenders, lights, pedals, rack etc.) partly because that's how I use it and partly because it would be too much of a pain to remove everything. I am also interested to see what it tips the scales at.

I said the frame .. . . . . . . . .

Yes, my Wellington 3.0 weighed an even 24 lbs. The frame is within 1 1/2 pounds of a $3,500 Cervelo or Colnago. I asked, even badgered BD and Bike Island for the weight and they won't disclose. Chucking the seat, post and wheels could, could get it down to 21 lbs. The seat/post combo was over 700 grams on the state certified testing lab scale. The Alex Rim wheelset is 2300 grams, without tape, skewers, etc.. . . . . Kenda tires and tubes and.. . . . . One day when I replace some serious components I will strip it and weight the freakin frame. I wanna know.

The bike has 1600km on it now. I just did my monthly cleanup and scrubbed the road grime away from the frame, components and drivetrain. The kool stop bicolours were replaced by the salmon pads and they are my favourites so far. They are wearing quickly though, so I believe the rim to be the culprit. The rim is coming a bit out of true but it was never perfect to begin with. Braking distance in the wet is not ideal but in the dry it is quite snappy.

I replaced the chain tonight with a SRAM 8 speed as well because the old chain had worn past its stretch limit about 600km ago and was starting to rust as I take the bike into rain on almost a daily basis.

The bike is doing fine. I did have a spill on an icy day and knocked one of the brifters askew and have not figured out how to adjust its position on the bars back to straight. I am eyeing lighter, prettier, nicer bikes as I have proven to myself that I can take biking to work seriously but there is nothing in the works for now as i have a wedding to pay for. I was looking at the Windsor knight as well as the model above with the ultegra cranks etc but we will see.

My medium term review is...great bike for the money but you will eventually find fault with nearly all its low end components if you get more into biking and lust after nicer bikes. If you take it out every now and then and don't mind a so so bike then it performs well and is worth the purchase.

How many gears have the winsdor 2.0

bobbyl1966

what winsdor model do you have. all winsdor frames is the same just have better groupset? If your bike have better groupset is compare to high price bikes?

Its a good steed if you don't care to have the lightest road bike. It won't win the TdF but will be fast enough to get you where you want to go.

Naturally saddle angle is a very personal thing, but the vast majority of riders like their saddle essentially perfectly horizontal. I notice yours is tipped up at the front. If you have not tried to ride with the saddle level and make other adjustments for comfort, I strongly suggest you try this. One tends to be able to ride lower on the drops more comfortably with a saddle not tipped up. If you have already eliminated this possibility, so be it. Everyone is indeed different.
