I really dig the new carbon fiber fork and that the decal is smaller than the old one. The bikes decently light, probably around 21ish pounds when you have everything on it. Its probably at about 19.5 the way i have it set up. (ill take off the chain guard too to lose a little more) It rides really smooth, and is much easier than my last bike. The seat is really firm which im not used to but will give it a week to see how i feel about it. Pedals are basic boring. (MKS GR-9's will be here today!) The wheels are true and pretty light. I flipped and chopped the road drops into bullhorns and threw some blue fizik wrap on em. I took off the back brake and left one lever for the front brake. So far really enjoying it. I'll prob go ahead and get a carbon fiber seatpost for looks and a little dampening. The bike handles super nice. Thats the most noticeable thing to me. Its responsive but not as responsive as the higher end aluminum bikes ive been on. Enough for me to be happy for in town riding. The gearing is at 46x16 which is a little higher than i am used to, but i have another cog so i may swap it out. Overall a fantastic bike for the price and leaves plenty of room for upgrades.
Ill post a pic once ive colored the back rim...im thinking either purple, neon green, or blue...what do you guys think?
