If you had 12k to spend on a triathlon bike.
Do you get just the speedmax cfr or… do you get the speedmax CF SLX and spend 4k on any random upgrade you could think of.
Which would you get… what parts would you go with if you chose the CF SLX? Custom paint?
If I liked what was on the CFR, I would get it for convenience. But I like to pick all of my components so I would go SLX, custom paint, and my choice of components in your case. But that’s just a personal preference
What’s the difference between them other than 200grams and a paint job? That’s not worth 4k is it?!
If I had 12k to spend on a bike, it probably wouldn’t be either of them.
Its really just the difference in cost between the zipp858s and the sram vs Shimano costs
