Quick picture from the end of a ride. Breaking a few rules (chainring and etc.) but throwing this out there for now. I want to get the new Dura Ace Di2 on it eventually (whenever it finally comes out). Any suggestions?

IMHO unfortunately there's nothing that can turn a Roubaix/CGOBLR combination 'hot', but at least it looks functional, and the red is nice.

Dis good. I have a custom bike in 725 tubing coming in October that is getting the 10 speed + Dura Ace DT shifters treatment. Don't see any of those on the road ever.

Sorry, just joking around. I'm not into those Zertz seatposts, but otherwise it looks like you have it dialed in to your fit and good to go for a wide range of riding with some really nice stuff.

I know the Diverge probably won't win many beauty pageants but I'll be damned if I won't do my best to spruce it up the best I can (a better photography job probably wouldn't hurt either). :thumb: |

Well updates call for a new photo I guess. Not the clearest photo but here it goes :) Put Enve 3.4 SES clincher set and went on a 90 mile 9500 feet climb. They feel amazing!

The Felt is hot, and he has nice floors too.

This bike is hot! I somehow doubt I would be able to get any bike that hot! The photo makes it look really nice! It suits. I would love to see a better picture of the bike though. What are the specs of the bike?
Here is EVERYTHING: Frameset : 2015 Felt F1 Headset : FSA NO.38/42 BB : Rotor BB30-24 Groupset : Dura-Ace Di2 9070 (34x50 / 11-28. 172.5mm Cranks) Wheelset : Enve 3.4 SES Clinchers (DT 240s Hubs) Stem : 3T ARX II Team Stealth (100mm) Handlebars : 3T Ergonova Team Stealth (40cm) Seatpost : 3T Stylus 0 Team Stealth Saddle : Selle Italia SLR Tekno Flow Pedals : Look Keo Blade 2 Ti Power Meter : Stages DuraAce Bottle Cages : Tune Wassertrager 2.0 Tires : Continental GP 4000s ii 700x25c Inner Tubes : Continental Supersonic Handle Bar Tape : Lizard Skins DSP 2.5mm Brake Shoes : Enve Brake Cables : Shimano Duraace Bicycle Computer Mount : Garmin Weight as you see in photo and above list : 6.66kg http://i68.tinypic.com/kf1v0o.jpg |
That is some bike I definitely have to say! The better pictureakes it look really nice! Thanks for giving the whole specs! It must have cost some good amount of money but it was totally worth it as it appears in the photo! I have an addiction to Road bikes! I set my eyes on one I want and then I want another newer one and it goes on! How much miles do you do on it in an average month?

Yeah I was very, very lucky to be able to put this together. When it comes to a healthy lifestyle, I seem to justify spending any extra coin I can put aside. Sure, you can be healthy with with a cheaper bike! I rode the crap out of my F75 before this one. But I can't deny how much more joy I get out of riding this one now! I used to either finish or come close to finishing MTS challenges on strava which is 777 miles per month. Lately though I've been focusing on quality rather than quantity. I'm a tiny bit ahead of my goal which is 6000 miles per year which comes down to 500 miles per month. I'd say 420 miles of that is on this F1 the rest of it is commuting on F75. |

I need to ask something! I am a complete newbie with road bikes so don't judge me on it lol! Are your handlebars very low compared to your saddle or is that an intentional drop in handlebars? |

That is a lot of miles still even though you didn't completely finish the challenges :) How accurate is Strava anyway? Like, is it good?! When you are ready you should increase your goal if you are going past it!
Wait! I need to ask something! I am a complete newbie with road bikes so don't judge me on it lol! Are your handlebars very low compared to your saddle or is that an intentional drop in handlebars? Yes! My stem/handlebars are pretty much lowest they can go. "Slamming the stem" if you heard the term before. My saddle height has always been the same naturally and I had quite a few spacers under the stem when I first started cycling little less than a year ago. I was 83kg and not very flexible. As I rode more I lost a lot of weight and got more flexible so I recently slammed the stem. It feels great! Benefits are being in a more aero position obviously. |

A Specialized employee's bike on instagram, this has to be the coolest Diverge I've seen yet, fully kitted out. Love the versatility of this bike, it's just as happy on a group ride.
