That he's sunk more money in to the frame and wheels than the grouppo.

An approach I 100% agree with.

Really hanker after an S2. Lovely bike.

I agree, easier and cheaper ti upgrade the groupo as you go than frame/wheels.

Yes, I decided on a budget and tried to stay within my means. It's a pretty basic build. Rival, 3T, non-dimpled 404's, Conti Gatorskins, and $ left over for an Garmin Edge 200. I would like to upgrade the crank set but other than that it's a fun build and I'm happy.

Really digging those S2, very understated and less pretentious than some other "curvy because we can" aero bikes. :thumbup:
