Just got my bike back from my LBS.
Unfortunately, I crashed a few weeks ago. Some road rash, a lightly bruised rib and a broken front wheel, shifters and handlebars. Luckily, the bike was insured. I have been thinking about going to Di2. The shifters needed to be replaced anyway, so I figured this was the time.
2019 Specialized Tarmac Expert upgraded with Di2, Roval CL50s (and after the crash the front was replaced by CLX50), Pro Vibe Aero bars, S-Works Power saddle, Dura-Ace rotors and 28mm Turbo Cottons. So happy with how it turned out!

Frame: Size 52

Tires: GP5000 28c
Tubes: Tubolito S tubo
Bars: Aerofly II 40cm
Saddle: Power S-works Mirror

Total weights including pedals and fidlock bottle cages = 6.87kg, pretty impressive!
Also I might change those white Roval logos to gloss black, i think it's kinda tacky right now.

Beautiful bike and impresive weight! But why a "MTB-style" bidon? Fidlock does have roadstyle ones too (love the look and handeling of the whole idea myself so both my bikes have Money Link (stangely 2 manufactures make exactly the same product...?))riochang wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 4:08 pm

I've put around 100km with this saddle by now, it's probably one of the most comfortable saddle I've ever used. Previously owned regular power, power arc and berk lupina. I didn't get on well with regular power or power arc, berk suited me best but still get sitbone hotspot after about 3 hours. This new one simply disappeared during riding so it's a good sign but I need to ride longer period to really know how it performs. Btw, mirror shaped kinda between power and power arc, I.e. slightly more curved
Haha I didn't realized it was for MTB, but I prefer the functionality and style of this over regular road style ones, it's slightly oval shaped so maybe it's even more aero than round ones.
Thanks. I've been using a elaston pro and I simply love that thing. Never had any pain with that. But now I've moved it to my indoor bike and I'm using a berk dila (the elaston is twice the weight of the dila) but I guess I'm still adapting to it.riochang wrote: ↑Sat Aug 08, 2020 11:33 amI've put around 100km with this saddle by now, it's probably one of the most comfortable saddle I've ever used.

I kept looking at the dila and a Selle Italia slr boost which is also really lightweight. The mirror seems to be something incredible but also on the heavy side. Nonetheless, if it's pain free I guess 80gr won't kill any of my PBs.
