loads of steerer height to dial in my position. I'm amazed it only weighs 8.2Kg

    Nice, you might want to fit pedals before that ride though.

    Nice. How was it on the first ride?

    I'll have to get the scales out and see how much heavier mine is, to see where I can upgrade (I've got the factory spec 105 disc).

    needs a few tweaks to the position, I have a couple of broken discs so position has to be perfect, i also need to replace my cleats which i'd rather dial in on an already setup bike.

    Wednesday should be a good 3 hours in the saddle (also new)
