Well then, I'm curious, what do you do for living and how do you manage to find time for riding and servicing your bikes!? Maybe it's a good idea to make a video about it? Of course it's a private matter, so it's fully understandable if you don't whant to share this kind of info on the channel. Anyway, thanks a lot for your great videos!

There’s no list… but back then I had a few specific things I wanted. 1. Internal cable routing (that still allowed be to use my own stem). 2. Reasonable weigh (~800g) 3. No dropped seatstays. 4. Standard seatpost. 5. Nice color. The Aurum ticked all the boxes except no5 back then before the white was released, and they where not shipping here it internationally at that time. So trek emonda was the other option only missing the standard seatpost, but that was a compromise I was willing to make.
