Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Anybody has any perspective or advise on this bike, used but with decent specs. All Shimano 105, Velomax wheelset, carbon fork... I was thinking to go to ultegra, but I like this one too. What do you think? What would you upgrade in terms of weight and ride?

Also, question regarding seatpost, I've been riding the 27.2 seat post with the minimum line about 1.5 inches out. How much of a problem would that be?
