Tired of constantly getting beaten by stronger riders? Always wondering what people mean by low yaw? Have more money than watts? Well here's your answer. Hours and hours have been spent painstakingly skimming Slowtwitch threads, looking at wind tunnel results, and following ERO social media pages in order to build the fastest bike possible. It doesn't have fancy electronic shifting or pulley wheels as big as the espresso saucers you use before your ride but that's because this bike was meant to be fast, not bougie. (It is bad though.) But it doesn't have integrated bento boxes either, you say? Who cares! Everyone knows that starvation is the key to getting aero. Plus you'll be moving so fast you won't even be out there long enough to eat!
Value stopping quickly? Like brakes that are easy to adjust? Well then you probably should get some real damn excitement in your life and buy this bike. You haven't feared for your life until you've ridden this bad boy down a hill with carbon rims in the rain. If that doesn't make you value life, nothing will. #AeroOverEverything You'll also save a ton of money by skipping out on all those dumb Yoga classes everyone is telling you to take. Having to adjust this rear brake in between wheel changes will teach you all the patience and meditation that can be known. It might as well come with a damn Buddhist Monk robe. Plus with this being a former Garmin-Sharp bike, it's got more street cred than you could ever imagine, although not enough to let you get by with wearing a pro team replica kit. #JustSayNo
But for real, you would be VERY hard pressed to build a bike this fast for this price. I built this up for TT and stage racing this past season but we're balls deep in the renovation of a house (dumb, don't do it) and its quickly eating all my free time plus I think I've come to the conclusion I like piecing together rad bikes. There are some signs of use and wear, but nothing major or concerning; a few marks on the frame, a little shoe rub on the crank, and some clearcoat peeling on the brake levers are the biggest things. The fork is cut for 5mm of spacers above and below the stem so it's a pretty aggressive fit. You can run a 3T Brezza riser kit ont eh Ventus aerobars if you need more arm pad stack.
