Weight Weenies

Hey,


I have to decide between 2 evo, same price.
a brand new HM evo ultegra DISC 2017 (upgraded wheels -carbon 38mm disc)

vs 2016 HM evo dura ace with enve classic dt swiss 350 45 mm , about 3000 miles on everything)

what would be your choice?
one should be 2 lbs less at least.... thanks

On what sort of roads are you riding?

Lots of hills and/or rain I'd go discs.

hills yes but not really long descent. Rain not really

I do not recommend 2017 disc model because of rear QR. When you are looking for Disc model, do not consider any option with QR on your shopping list.

the best option will be 2018 thru axle models.... (disc is far better than rim brakes!)

The black one. Looks much nicer.

If you are heavier and like climbing go with the disc. If you are lighter then go with the nicer looking and better equipped used one.

yep, im 175lbs,
I prefer the black one.
thanks

the disc is more popular as I can see ? why because the bike is new from bike shop?
just asking
