The price of these super bikes is why I tend to buy a frame, and then buy a few parts at a time whenever my economy allows it. It most likely ends up being just as expensive as buying the complete bike, but it kind of feels less expensive when you're not paying everything at once. :)

This looks like an amazing bike and so incredibly light. Everyone will feel like a champion on this bike! It must have been a real treat to be able to test ride. You'll need to save your pennies for Thuong's birthday. The price of the Sram Red version is around £12,000 here in the UK. I don't suppose there's a big difference in price in Japan? You can get the frame only for £4,500. I'm wincing in pain, a little, haha. If I had the means, I'd definitely be trying one out with a view to buying!

I’m enjoying the bike so far kzbin.infoUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.
