as has been said already a newer bike won't make u must faster maybe 1mph .IMHO I would spend the money on a good wheelset and good tires so when u come around corners and descent you have the confidence to go 25 mph or faster around turns and up to 50 mph down the hills if you have some steeper ones near you.as for the bike I have a few higher end bikes .and some of my fastest time are on a older cannondale downtube shiftter bike .but I will admit my bmc with di2 shifting is so much more fun to ride but not much faster.but as others have sad I seam to be on it much more than the other bikes being its an insurance bike and hundred mile rides are much more comfortable on ot
