Thank you so much for your feedback. Much appreciated.
Any suggestions for upgrades would be welcome too as I don't know where to start. All I know is that I might need different pedals and maybe different seatpost as this is super hard. Rest is probably ok?
The seat post on this bike is made from carbon fiber which "should" offer damping effects for any chatter related type of riding. Would suggest trying out the seat post and the VP pedals first before buying any upgrades. You "Might" find out that they work well.
Typical upgrades has been a saddle that fits the new owner, pedals when it's just the cheap stuff that does not work well, possible grips for handlebars.
If you want to upgrade now, would suggest water bottle cage, good insulated water bottle, seat post bag, bar bag, something to put a multi tool/mini pump, tube in just in case of need. Or if you are not going to take long rides, might not be needed.
Heh, this bike is on sale for U.S. $900. You are getting a great deal! The Marin is nice, but at $1600 U.S. eh,,the Canyon has it beat on value.
Will also have to add: The Pathlite 6 which is not much of a downgrade to the 7, is on a really nice sale of $600 U.S. hmmmm, perhaps it's time to upgrade my Sub Cross.......Nice green color too!
