Factor O2 - Miami Blue
Picked this up recently as I wanted a pure road bike as opposed to my Allied All Road.
A mix of DA Cranks withe Ultegra FD/RD/Shifters/Brakes. I swapped the RD to a medium cage to accommodate an 11-32 - seeing where I live averages 100ft ascent per mile ridden. The bike came with older generation Zipp 202's and I replaced them with the new Zipp 303 Firecrest. I also added the Garmin Rally RS200 power pedals from a forumite. The bike came with Black Inc integrated bar/stem, but there were some unforeseen issues with the condition post sale, so the seller and I worked out replacing the Black Inc with Enve SES bars and stem. I really like the SES bars. I have a less than 10 rides on the bike but am loving the feel thus far. I have few years left on a bike with this aggressive setup, but will ride it until my body says no. The pics don't really do it justice. You can't pick your used bike colors, and this is not the color scheme I would have chosen new - but it quickly grew on me and is awesome up close. |

Loving that color blocking. Sometimes you end up with a color you never thought you'd like on a second-hand rig, but end up loving.

Elladaddy - it actually popped up on here. I waited a bit and jumped in. The wheelset that came with the sale were a "throw in" in my opinion and did not go/show well with the bike. I had some new 303 Firecrest on another bike that I swapped out. I absolutely love this bike. It climbs, sprints, and rolls for hours on end.
Hope you are able to try one out soon. |
