Thanks boss!

Nope not this time. Their price came way to high for me. Rivercity came through with a good deal for me. Brandon (service manager) does equally good work as well. When I bought my first enve set through sugar, she had done a lot to help me and went the extra mile so I felt obligated at the time, plus I couldn't turn down her price for that set. Now is now and then was then. Still recommend Jude to anyone I talk to but the price point just wasn't there this time around.

Brandon is top notch. When I can not solve BB challenges he is the go to guy there.

What I truly love about this bike is the contrasting MAAP bottles, weirdly enough.

Hey! New ride! I've been off the forum for about a year after moving to London - sadly, but by choice, the bike did not make the trip over the pond with me.

Just getting caught up on this thread - really nice build, congrats! Can't believe how far this has come from the first SuperSix build you posted a few years ago. A bit jealous now :-)

You realise I now need to find a way to trim another 300g from my bike now to keep up with you ;-)

Enjoy it!

Got my Enve 4.5's/Black Chris King R45 hubs and Spiderings put on yesterday. Bike is now complete (Until I decide there is something else I NEED)

So HOT! Although I did really like the red hubs but it's nice and stealthy now.

Just curious, why not upgrade to 11s?

What do your new set of wheels weigh compared to the 45s?

Looks great! Love the ENVE's. The Spidering is a must for any high end 'Dale as well.

Nice job! What's the final weight with the 4.5s? Are they clinchers or tubulars?

I personally cant stand the ergonomics of the 9000 hoods. Really like the 7900. I've ridden Di2 and 9000 a bunch of times and it is the number 1 thing that gets me every time, so I have simply stuck with my DA 7900. I may eventually switch down the road, but for now I'm good with the 10spd

They are clinchers and they came in at 1529g. Compared to 1448g (If I remember correctly). I took a weight penalty but I can feel the aero advantage when maintaining speeds and descending. The extra width feels nice as well. I went on my first ride with them this past saturday. Unfortunately, I hadn't been on the bike for 3 weeks due to family events. This left me feeling pretty weak so I'm not sure if it was me or the wheels, but these dont feel to be as "Snappy" or explosive on a sprint as the Classic 45. Maybe its the added weight, maybe it was me on that day, not sure. Will definitely be looking forward to more rides and testing them out. Still have yet to weigh my bike with the new additions though.

I love my Classic 45's and love the fact that when built up they were 1280g which is fantastic for clinchers.
