at the moment I have a planet x pro carbon which has been great for the last 3 years , looking to upgrade and im considering a planet x ec130 which is being sold for £1500 with full sram force and decent wheels 7.3 kilo . sounds a bargain and looks a treat . anybody got one or ridden one ? and would I feel the advantage of an aero set up or is just marketing .

Not that informative but it does look like you're being "overcharged" by £200.....0 -

I wish I had an aero frame. I had the insane idea of going out for a century in the Cotswolds early this morning, only seven days after the Fred Whitton. Obviously the wind strengthened on the way back, so two hours with wind in the face from Edge hill to Solihull.
With one of these frames, I could have gone round in 6 hours 16 minutes, instead of 6 hours 18 minutes... those 2 minutes that make all the difference :-)left the forum March 20230 -

I find them ugly... that said last year we went to see one of these chipper Belgian races on cobbles (Doors van Vlaanderen or ET3, can't remember) and the Katusha guys were on their red aero Canyon frames, which do look the dos's bollox in real life... but only because they are red, people buy them matt black and they look shiteleft the forum March 20230
