Couple questions as first time buyer looking at a Cervelo R3
Hey guys!
I am new to road biking and I want to make the right choice on my first road bike and have come to like the Cervelo R3 a lot. the shop has a 14 and a 15 to chose from and looks to be color as the only difference but also I noticed wheels and tire size from 23 to 25.
Do you know the specifics between these two years. Clearly the color but someone might have said the fork to accommodate the 15's 25c tire size. I really appreciate any input, knowledge or wisdom on the subject.
I'm also considering a Trek sl6 as a comparison if you have any knowledge on it or in comparison to the r3 that would be greatly appreciated.
I can't wait to ride and get strong. Thank you.
Best,
Nick
