SE Premium Brew vs kilo tt

Hi, I recently got my windsor clockwork stolen so I am in the market for a new bike. I've lurked for awhile on this forum and the bike of choice seems to be the kilo tt. Can you guys give me some nonbiased pros and cons for both of the bikes. Disregarding the paint and decals on the SE, is it up to par with the kilo? What are some component differences that come with the stock bike?

If we are comparing the PB vs a standard TT then I would go with the PB. cranks are better, pedals are better, wheels are better. If it were me I would buy either the TT pro or the WT. The PB (at least for me, size 61) had a low bottom bracket giving me pedal strike when cornering. The clearance made it so I could barely even get 25mm tires to fit. If you just want a bike to mess around with (no racing) then I would personally go with the WT due to the ability to have wider tires which is better for commuting/city riding. If not then get the PRO.


TT PRO / WT > PB > TT

What about the Fuji track or the declaration? It's around the same price so how does it compare do you think?
