Skye Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 Changed from a Giant TCR Adv ISP to this Spez SL2: Wow what a BEAUT!!! Congratulations, promise you, you will be happy
Serendipity Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 That is one sexy bike. What is your judgement on the ride difference?
AuctionLamb Posted September 19, 2009 Author Posted September 19, 2009 That is one sexy bike. What is your judgement on the ride difference? This bike is a lot stiffer than the Giant...very nice bike! I was always a fan of Giant.
AuctionLamb Posted September 19, 2009 Author Posted September 19, 2009 Thanks Skye and BigBen! We will see how fast it goes tomorrow...hopefully fast enough!! AuctionLamb2009-09-19 13:06:17
wisecrack Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 Wow what a beast! Very nice which groupset is that??
grosjoster Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 nice bike! jy sal nie spyt wees nie! weet nie of jy gesien het by killarny ek het ook n spec gekry nie, baie tevrede
Jeepdude Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 specialized is ......wel special net ironies dit word meestal deur giant gemaak. Nogsteeds kickass!!!
wheelz Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 wow thats nice. thats a proper upgrade then again even getting a raleigh is an upgrade from a giant (-terd) Many happy miles
AuctionLamb Posted September 21, 2009 Author Posted September 21, 2009 Wow what a beast! Very nice which groupset is that?? It has the new Ultegra 6700 on, I cannot see why I must spend R9000 more on DA...it is really not worth it! Another benefit is that the maintenance is also going to be cheaper.
wisecrack Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 The new Ultegra really looks sexy I like the carbon levers and the fact that those unsightly cables is a thing of the past. Have you gotten some km on her over the weekend and how was the ride compared to the Giant?
AuctionLamb Posted September 21, 2009 Author Posted September 21, 2009 The new Ultegra really looks sexy I like the carbon levers and the fact that those unsightly cables is a thing of the past. Have you gotten some km on her over the weekend and how was the ride compared to the Giant? Frame is a lot stiffer than the Giant...but I had the "older" model Giant ISP frame. The difference is big, I think if you compare the latest GIANT ISP with the Spezialized then it would be more of a realistic comparison. I really like the Spez, I would think twice from now on to buy an ISP frame. The reason for that is purely the re-sale hassle of it and travel issue. It is sooooo nice to actually fit a bike into a bike box, a bike bag is a bit risky for me!
CoolRyder Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 Awesome bike - I have the same one in the world cup colours. Thinking of getting those Easton wheels - looks awesome how do they handle? I have heard guys riding the SLX wheels say they are not very stiff?
