NBD 2018 Cervélo S3 disc SRAM eTap (AKA I have a sickness)

So I’ve been wanting to add an aero bike to complement my 2019 Giant TCR Advanced SL1. A “local” bike shop (if you consider 50 miles and 1.5 hours in LA traffic local) was clearancing 2018 Cervélo S3 disc SRAM eTap and happened to have one in my size. They cut the seat post to my size and are right now completing setup (wheels needed slight truing).

Originally sold a couple of years ago for 8800, got it for 5K out the door (meaning 4566 with the CA sales tax). Rode it and very much enjoyed the feel. Fast and relatively comfortable for an aero bike. Not as cushy as a Madone but not as unforgiving as other aero bikes I tested like the Propel. Good power transfer via its stiff frame. And those deep ENVEs. First deep set I’ll own. More updates soon.
