The one thing I never heard because my broke arse has never had a good bike, is the hub sounds. Holy shite, it's like a 1000 angry hornets.
Thats how you know its $$
I don't even need a bell for passing, just let the hub sing to let them know i'm coming by.

Check those DT Swiss for recall. No bueno if they delaminate.
Thanks, baw, already done. Thankfully not an issue.

YES! It's been hilarious, I just let off pedaling and people jump off the path.

I upgraded the 350 on my Roval Rapides from 36t to 54t for a little extra umph in the freewheel department.

It's the blue colorway on mine, not the white. I'm trying not to put too much out there. And no, I didn't buy the frameset, it's the full bike. It was used through buycycle. The specs are nothing fancy, dura ace di2, 60mm dt swiss.
Ummm, ok.. i’d like to see a pic, sounds nice.

I dont think trek or specialized make any of their frames in the US anymore.

I meant relative to what people normally think for hardware on a Colnago. Most people think Campagnolo super record.
Dura ace just seems common to us, I rarely see campy much.

This is the best I can do. I'm not putting actual pics. I don't think you guys here would be crazy, but i don't trust a few poli board posters that have doxxed people. I get into way too many arguments there.
When i bought it, you can see its sisters on buycycle still if you look there. There we 3 for sale, two in my size range. There's still two of them.
So picture this, but with a bisaddle, dt swiss 60mm wheels, and a 180lb dude riding it, with a rudy project wing helmet. And yeah, it was very expensive, and costs nearly what my car does, but i grew up broke, and I've never owned anything this expensive before, but I love bikes so i finally treated myself. I've always just settled and bought 5+ year old bikes to ride. My Tarmac was old as hell, mechanical groupset, etc.
This is my first "new" bike even though it's gently pre-owned.

I can’t believe someone on TD owns a Y1RS. Insane

My fellow cyclists friends think I'm nuts because I can't possibly go as fast as it wants to go.
And it's a really interesting position, it's obviously very aggressive, like something just a few steps away from a tri bike position. I'm going to add aero bars at some point, but I'm going to consult with Colnago before I do it, to make sure it complements the bike.
And pricing is more reasonable than people think. I know what they cost new, but on buycycle, where I bought it, it's around 40% off new. I'm crazy, but not crazy enough to buy one new.
And on that note, if you guys are wanting a European speedbike at a discounted price, buycycle is the way to go.
