Giant TCR Advanced SL 2017 - Budget Build

[kingsolom0n]

First big a thank you to everyone that contributes on here. All the info here was a huge help when picking components.

I'm turning 30 next year and this is an early birthday gift to myself

Main goal was to not blow too much money. So the frameset and groupset were bought used from eBay. Everything else was bought on sale (except for TA Syrius chainrings) or I already owned it.

Wasn't able to weigh everything before having the lbs build it up but hoping the final weight is in the 6.3 kg range. Already have plans to hopefully get it under 6 kg by my actual birthday.

Budget was supposed to be $3000. Went over it slightly. Everything total was $3028.

Looks great! (except for your stem...) My tcr adv sl was one of the best riding bikes i've owned.
