Take any carbon frame, give it a decent paint job, add Dura Ace / SRAM Red / Campag SR groupset and deep section carbon wheels for marketing shots. Standard formula. Take same frame and add a 105 groupset and Mavic Aksiums and it'll look very ordinary.More problems but still living....0

Scapin are a well-established outfit and reknown for one of the few people continuing to build steel frames - so this looks like a bit of a diversification. It may be worth clarifying whether this is a unique frame from Scapin or a generic frame from the likes of Deda? It's not to say that generic frames are bad per se, but there is often a huge variation in price for some purely based on intangibles like a paintjob or warranty.Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..0

And could someone please tell me the benefit's of deep section rims over the standard ones..
Thanks.Cervelo S5 Ultegra Di2.0 -
Deep rims: they look cool and make an awesome sound when riding. Oh, and they deliver aerodynamic benefits that I understand only become significant at speeds in excess of about 20mph. They also cost loads, and will make you weep when you damage them...0
