I've read that gan rs is obviously less rigid than F8, but also less comfortable.. For a frame with a price tag around 3k euros (please let me know if you find cheaper) I don't know what to say... There are other frames, exquisite, for this amount of money..

Riding a F8 changed my entire perspective on bike weight and the need for a uber light frame.
If you can build an F8 in the 13-15lb range, it will ride better than most weight weenie bikes.
The Engineering that went into that frame makes it ride like nothing else. I really want a red F8!
I have an 11-12lb build and I rode a stock F8 with 9000 and Ultegra brakes and Mavic wheels.
I've never felt a bike accelerate like the F8 did, on steep climbs. My mind was blown after riding the F8.
