Feels very aero. Faster on flat than my non aero but lighter giant defy advanced sl1 by 2 lb.
A bit of a slog on steep hills due to extra weight. SRAM force etap group set, cannot fault it although the lever hoods are 2cm closer to the bars than Ultegra. This makes for shorter overall reach.
Stem/steerer tube come with average spacer rise. If you want to slam the stem but not cut the tube then be aware that the uniquely shaped spacers do not neatly transfer from under stem to above it due to the differing stem seating shapes between under and above.
Internal hydro cables rattle.
Vision wheels good but not ultimate aero. Still use hooked rims but which at least give a wider choice of tyre.
Have fitted conti gp5000 30mm
32’s would get on there fine.
Almost a one to one bottom gear, 35f x 33r so not too bad on steeper hills.
Half the price of a Cann super six evo or Spec tarmac sl7
