SL pro looks good, but Nanolight must be more advanced. Anyone know what the technical advantages are?

    Check the tyre clearance issue (or non issue - depends on what tyres you like to run). I have a Pro SL and like it, but I don't think I would upgrade to a Nano. PX messed up on the frame weight I think! Printed 920g on the frame and then state it's 1100g on the site. Ooops.

    However, have seen a couple of posts on here from people who have got one and they seem to like it....

    If it were me and I'd set my heart on a PX, I'd get a Pro SL frame and team it up with an Easton EC70 fork - another person on here did that as it sorted out the somewhat twitchy front end - also looks pretty good!

    Baz, your right about the weight issue, i noticed that...probs 180g for the paint !!

    I've had my SL Pro for 8months and did think about getting the Nano f&f, not going bother now. But i must say i've never had the twitchy front end on mine.

    Great bike for the money though. Mines the full Ultegra one they were doing for 999. I had the model Bs on when i got it, but changed them for the 6700 Ultegras. Rides great.
