So after 3 months, this bike has been phenomenal. Just surpassed all expectations.
I recently took it to the alps for a little bit of late season training, i enjoyed it a lot and will be doing a pre-season training there as its helped my legs a fair bit.
Heres some photos from the trip.
A scenic shot of the orca outside the chalet, with the alp d'huez as the backdrop.
And heres me at the top of the col du galibier 75km into the second day, i was enjoying myself a lot more than some of my heavier team-mates, thats for sure! haha
I fitted the ultegra chainset for one reason only, it was the only compact i had, i wasn't racing up these mountains so i didn't need the bigger gears, spin to win!
i hope everyones summer has had some good weather with some good riding!
