I got mine and have had first ridden 80km flat and hills terrain yesterday. It's an aero bike with 62mm aero wheels but makes you riding with comfort and even crosswind is coming you can hadle it with confidence due to it's long wheelbase, 991mm of size51. The good comes with bad , you can feel not so direct response while you doing out of saddle sprinting.

what your saddle height on your 51 and do you have a pic. I have short legs and I feel like a 51 will not have much post showing and I kinda hate that look.. so I'm leaning 47. Nice to know someone has one in the flesh. My LBS offers no sales tax on black friday.. so I'm thinking of taking advantage of that and my discount..I'll save quite a bit.

that would be 2cm higher then what I would be using... What your height or stack height to the bars from the ground or the middle of the BB.

I really like that white color... too bad I dont need the groupset. I'm likely to just get the module.

Absolutely not. With a measured 28mm tire, it's got 4mm all around.

28+4+4=36, so yes? :-)
