New Bike Day! Picking up my brand new Winspace SLC 3 and first thoughts

[@spoonnguyen4274]

Congrats on the new ride, enjoy and safe riding!

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

@@spoonnguyen4274 thanks! 😊

Great build at a great price, you’ll love it. My Winspace wheels have been bullet proof and when I cracked one their after sales warranty couldn’t have been easier or quicker. I look forward so seeing what you think.

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

Good to hear! thanks :)

I wouldnt have expected 99 Bikes to assemble a bike where the parts were not bought from their stores. Can I ask how much they charged for assembly?

[@s1ddh4nt]

Looks sweet! Whats the weight of the bike?

[@masterofthepro7384]

i saw it was about 10kg

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

@@s1ddh4nt 7.4kg with bottle cages and pedals. So would be around 7.1kg without

[@ethanw9434]

No excuses now! What size tyre did you go for? Pretty sure I've seen you in the hills before

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

@@ethanw9434 I wanted 30s but they didn't have in stock so went with 28s. I'll be ready next time and order 30s ahead of time. Yep no excuses now!

[@ethanw9434]

@@ChrisPhungFitness 28s will be fine on those wheels, running 28s on mine but 30 or 32 next season. Nice bike!

Killer SLC, what size frame and bars did you with?

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

@@RafaSplanBcheers! I got a Small with 38cm bars. Im 167cm. Wanted 36cm but they don't do that size 😥. Now that I've ridden it I definitely would prefer a bit smaller. 38 still ok though.

Where did you get your ultegra Di2 group set from? Cheers

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

@@danieldelbello4095 lordgun has specials but gotta wait for things to go in stock. I had to email a lot of places to let me know when things are in stock

[@byunbee]

Why did you pay so much? SLC frameset is $1780 and Hyper 3 45 is $1420 = $3200. You can get the Ultegra di2 12 speed full groupset for around $1300. The total should be less than $4500. For what you paid for that bike you could have gotten a new Specilaized Tarmac SL8 Pro.

They're are in Australia. I believe it's in Australian dollars.

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

@@byunbee yes Australian dollars and our dollar is also low ATM 😭

[@byunbee]

@ Ah, didn’t realize you’re not in the U.S.

[@henryponiovasquez]

Good bike and wheels, but poor resale value…

[@ChrisPhungFitness]

The plan is to keep this bike for the next 10 years! So hopefully it won't be too bad 🤣
