Really Impressed with this new version of the SLC, I think they hit the nail on the head when designing the bike, very skinny seat stays for comfort and also keeping the round 27.2 seatpost. But then introducing the new modern side of bikes internal cables and also a little more aero headtube and fork.

The old SLC2.0 also had integrated cables. I had one for just over two years. The difference is that the new one comes with the FSA ACR headset instead of the Deda DCR headset. The old one had breakaway spacers and everything too, the ACR headset is better because the steerer is round instead of D shaped and the top cap is a standard one instead of the DCR which has an offset screw hole in the top cap.

@@ED-gb8md I loved my SLC2.0, I ran it for two years and did ~17000km on it in any environment you can think of. Cobbles, pancake-flat type of rides, multiple mountain passes, heavy rain, you name it. I also swapped wheels and groupos on it a lot. Initially I ran it with SRAM Force AXS and Zipp 454 NSWs, I swapped to Ultegra Di2 with a classified hub and DT Swiss 1400 50mm wheels and finally swapped the wheels to ENVE SES 3.4s. I’ll say I think the bike handled a lot better with the Zipps and Enves than the DTs, might be the wide internal width. I also ran the zipps the longest so I was most familiar with how the bike handled with them on. I wish the tire clearance was a bit wider, which this new version solves. My bike could barely fit 30mm GP5k tires on ENVE SES 3.4s. The frames life ended when I fell in a grate and completely destroyed the frame. Down tube and top tube cracked clean through. Entirely on me although I was slightly disappointed that Winspace don’t offer any sort of crash replacement discount or policy like most other brands. The one thing that surprised me is that the ride quality on my new bike (Tarmac SL7) is vaaaastly superior to the Winspace. Specifically it handles road vibrations a lot better even though I’m running slightly narrower tires on the SL7 (28s as opposed to 30s). I really did love my SLC2.0, it was light (enough), I won and podiumed crits with it, and I loved the handling. That being said, now that I’ve ridden a bigger name brand bike, I’d say unless the ride quality has improved significantly from the SLC2.0, one would be better off looking for a used name brand frame like a Tarmac SL7 than going for the SLC3.0.

@@GCPerformance18 I'm not sure I understand, but I'm guessing that means recent direct-drive trainer can take a through axle directly. I have an first-gen Tacx Neo, and the way it works with through-axle bikes is with an adapter than then takes a traditional quick release. A through-axle can't get through the trainer. So I guess I would have to buy a new trainer.

@GCperformance18 is Winspace telling reviewers this is a bike that stacks up against Tarmac SL 8? Or is this something that is organically being referred to?
