964g for a size 61???

I guess my green tint fade adds an extra 90 grams (also a size 61).

Does anyone have experience running a different stem? I'm considering going back to a round bar from the pro vibe aero sl, and wondering what other options i can go with for stem as well

Noticed this picture and had me thinking

That's Canada, right?
You're right! I have no idea why it defaulted to CA website.
Yes but sadly yet another price hike... was I think $15899 last time. Specialized are out of their minds.

Need a bit of help with figuring out the dusty blue pearl paint on the 2021 sworks frame. Are the logos matte on top of the clearcoat? Are they black or some other color?

$14000 for an off the shelf mass-produced bike is insane.

Those big WT team sponsorships have to be paid for somewhere I guess.
Pffft, thats nothing!
Wait till you pay the "Australia tax"
We get ripped off here on pretty much everything compared to what the rest of the world pays
S-Works SL7 with either Red AXS or 9270 is a cool AU$20100!

Is that supposed to be 'impressive'? 2022 S-Works SL7 is 23 732 AUD here in the Czech Republic. And the median wage around here is 1889 AUD/mo.

I have been to the local specialized dealer. No sworks models available before June 2022. They will receive 1 expert force in Feb 2022😂

Yes - SRAM Red mechanical with Juin Tech brakes.
Bit of a faff getting the cables through smoothly, and had to get a 3D printed headset spacer made - both to allow the cables through the front, plus to match the Schmolke stem.
Very happy with the end result though, and just under 6.5kg for a 56cm :D

Not impressive at all
More like disgusting
I'm guessing there won't be too many S-Works SL7's in the Czech Republic then

That’s a beauty Image. I was concerned about the tight bends for the cable, but I guess it’s not an issue. As long as it stops as good as my rim brakes is all I need

Also, I have a bunch of naysayers on FB. Do you mind if I show this to them?

The sl7 allows for mechanical shifting thus 4 cables in total. Why the 3d printed headset?
