Dream Roadie Frame

Had to google that and will not be showing my wife. Defy works great.......

Who does Focus in SA? Those frames look pretty darn good too (similar to the Evo, welli think)

 

Then, what's the main difference between the Hi-Mod and the Nano? One is R25k the other is R45k, so must be a big difference to justify that increase.

My last frame cost me an oven. A Gaggenau...

 

Got my missus a lovely SLR camera. Her first words were, "You're buying a bike, aren't you?"

 

She was spot on.

[Patchelicious]

So I couldn't justify a Colnago or Canyon at R60k for a frame.

 

It came down to:

Cannondale Evo Six Hi Mod at R25k

Giant Propel R29k

Current Spez Venge S-Works at R43k

 

Evo Six was my favorite choice, but I was reluctant as it has external cabling and Di2 is pricey, so I settled for the Giant. In my opinion the fastest bike for its price by far.

 

BUT I really like the Dale, so now I want the Dale and will buy Di2 with it.

 

Question is, what is the big difference between Di2 Ultergra and Dura Ace, weight wise and who offers the best deals?

You know you want a Colnago. Have you considered the V1-R? Aero frame with integrated brakes and Italian pedigree. Check out Maestro's UK for good prices.

Sexy in black. Congrats!

[Zatek]

Thanks. Looks better with the Zipp wheels but waiting for a free body.

[TALUS]

I love the paint job.

[Zatek]

Even without the wheels it goes like a rocket. Super impressed with the bike.

[Patchelicious]

Nice one, beautiful! Now stop showing off, you are making me jealous!

It is ok. I cam live with the extra weight. Just go on a 1 day dieet and the extra grams are gone.

 

Thanks for the offer.
