Sold my Specialized Tarmac with Ultegra Di2 as I was not riding it enough and after 7 months of not riding I purchased another bicycle. This time I went very basic and purchased an Origin 8 Lactic Acid frameset and built it up with SRAM Force 10-speed and a set of Specialized Roval CLX 60 Clinchers.
If I remember correctly the scale said it weighed 7.4kg all put together. Not that bad, but I also weigh a lot so I need to focus on dropping my weight more than dropping weight off the bike. So enough rambling here is the bike; I'll update it with a cheeseburger next time I ride.

I purchased mine from my LBS and now people call me Burger haha

I previously owned a SL4 Tarmac with Ui2 and an Allez for training (can you tell my LBS is a specialized dealer?) So coming from those I found the bike more relaxed and not as responsive, but overall not a bad bike. I built the bike for about $2,500 all together which most of that was the wheels, but I love nice wheels (even my training bike had reynolds with a powertap).
This bike has no where close to the saddle to bar drop from previous bikes, but it is still a fun bike to ride.
