• No more oval seat posts on the 5 and 6 series bikes - back to the inverted round posts.
• Also no more low spoke count wheels - too many problems with broken spokes and cracked rims.
• Lots more color choices and custom paint jobs with the One Program - be prepared to pay a premium.
• Prices are about equal to last year, but be aware that many models have downgraded the component group by one level .... ie. Ultegra to 105 etc... so really a hefty price increase.
