Wilier USA advertises di 2 for 9,000, however if I could get it with sram force it would be 8,000. I even am now leaning towards the zero SL. With sram or chorus it would be 7,000 which would leave money over for a computer, power meter and trainer. Unfortunately I can’t find one anywhere.
Not that I need to rush, but getting permission from the wife one has to act before she changes her mind.
Allied echo interest me a lot, just doesn’t have the aero I was hoping for, but maybe that’s not as important? Thoughts?
I find aero on a road bike to be overrated in most situations. Having a bike you can actually ride is, well, very importnte.
Especially these days, if you like bike you can actually get now, I'd get it now. Waiting might mean no bike.
