BTW, did you get to test ride any of the Tarmac SL6 models before deciding on the Izalco?

Has anyone asked Piermont if the Izalco frames come with the warranty? Price just dropped to $899 and I'm getting an itchy finger...

I have and they say yes. I also confirmed this with Focus Bikes USA. Piermont is an authorized dealer.

I’m tempted to build another.

Hah, it would be under 5kg, nearly aroud 4.7kg I guess, because my old Fuji is 4.89kg with the AX wheelset, and the claim weight of Izalco Max frameset is 200g lighter than the Fuji :lol:

Crazy light. Sum of all parts, can’t be just the wheels.
