What are my arguments? LOL Other than the Black/white is growing on me. The Shimano hubs are quiet. I have no idea what to expect from the FSA's.

RS80 16/20 spoke vs FSA Energy 20/24
Force Crank vs S900

I was going to throw a Romin Expert saddle on but I've no clue what either of those stock saddles are like.

I was for sure throwing on GP4000 on the Rival before it left the store, I know nothing about the Durano

I like the 11-26 better on the Rival than the 12-26 on the Force

Oh and I am not really a weight weenie. I mean my hybrid is 29 lbs on 700x28's any thing under 20 feels light! My caad8 r1000 was 19.5 with the Mavic elites.

yeah I can't hear my self argue anymore. If I got the Force I'd do brushed/black and de-badge the wheels if I could at least the FSA part maybe leaving the ENERGY stickers on.

I still like the 'grey' 10 on the black/white.... but then the RS80's have that ugly ass red 8 on them.
