@@nateyzf re-reading my comment, I wasn’t very clear. Wasn’t trying g to say heavier than stock. Meant heavier than he could have gotten. My point was he could have saved way more weight. Instead, he went with deep section wheels (and a heavy set at that) just because of the look. If I’m trying to get my bike lighter, I’d DEFINITELY have better options than these wheels. Zipp 303 Firecrest comes to mind, which is 300g lighter (and pretty awesome looking IMO). That’s almost a pound right there.

But certainly not irrelevant. And as an average cyclist that doesn't go 45 km/h unless it's downhill, a light bike is way more fun than a heavy one and an aero position way more important than an aero bike.

Friction is given by the SEALS (contact seals) and lubrication. A reputable (arguing best in industry) bearing from SKF, NTN or FAG with non-contact seals cost about ... 20 euros at most shipped.

I’m enjoying the bike so far kzitem.infoUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.

I finally bit the bullet when they came out with the Black Edition. I've put about 200 miles on them already. I was riding my bike through my neighborhood after I first put them on. Some a-hole broke a bunch of glass, which I didn't see and got a flat in the first 500 feet of my ride. Got home fixed the flat and went on my ride. I rode them into 25mph headwinds and crosswinds and I had no problems. Rode home with a 25mph tailwind and I was flying. Doing a solo ride across Florida and back from Clearwater to New Smyrna next week. 200miles is my longest ride, going to try and top that. Because, why the hell not!

@@GCPerformance18 Sucks how Spesh prices their bikes… often making “upgrades” cost prohibitive. I built a (frame up) S-Works SL6 a couple years ago, and it basically ran as much as a stock S-Works build. Only savings was the frame.. on sale at $3,800 instead of $4,800. If I installed Rapides and SRAM Red like I want to, on the Allez sprint, I’d be in the SL7 expert range, same R470 hoops… but CARBON frame. Wish there was a break on component builds, and upgrades. Anyways, I do have my eye on some Hunts.. but my bike was built by a moron at Spesh. Their direct to consumer offer is a joke. Literally had to take a brand new bike in for a tune up, before I could ride it. Now the BB is creaking like a 20yr old press fit… might not have this bike too much longer, as I have requested a return… or a new bike.

Hello, I am a big fan of your channel, just one quick question, I am riding SL7 expert with Roval C38, weigh around 8kg, if I am going to get another pair of wheels for speed, shall I get deep section wheel or get another pair of all-round wheel (e.g. Zipp 303 firecrest) in higher level? Thanks 🙏

thanks so much!!! if you live in a flat area like florida like I d, then a deeep dish wheel like 65mm or 60s are perfect and a huge upgrade but if you have any kin of climbs around you or moderate amount of climbs go for like a 50mm wheel it is the usual in between depth that people enjoy to get the added aero but still not so deep that you its harder to climb.... btu my wheels that depth I can literally sit on someone wheels and feel like a tt bike and jsut easily pedal lol..... the bike is doing a lto of the work for me

@@GCPerformance18 I am from Hong Kong, so it’s around the hilly climb, so I am thinking to keep Roval C38 to tackle the climb, but I am it’s not light enough to handle the job well. In the world of disc wheel, it seems to be hard to shave 300-400g on the wheels, so I am thinking whether I should replace a better all rounded wheel or go for the deep wheel to tackle the triathlon race.
