Funnily enough it was on there last week then disappeared and now back again...

It makes you think though advanced 1 is standard Ultegra with standard alloy wheel set, and you can get that for £1200 so ignoring the eBay one, that’s an extra £700 over Ultegra for Di2 and a set of alloy composite deep section wheels?

I had this with a tcr I bought from them...it was on the site in my size then gone,sold out,not available to order..about 2 weeks later,the model popped up in my size and bought it there and then.Didnt want to lose out second time round.

Yeah I get that but standard Ultegra isn’t exactly cheap either

500 hundred sovereigns........but trust me di2 is well worth it and etap is well worth even more

 

[Justinslow]

£470 and Di2 £900 yeah fair enough! Add the wheels which are not cheap either....

And probably full carbon fork vs a mix,without checking the specs

Unfortunately not, to get that you have to go the “pro” but then you get a lower group set for similar money etc but you do get better full carbon wheels, see post 1.

 

[Justinslow]

You can get the pro 1 for just over 2k

To build that with di2 and decent wheels would be more than 2k though

people who havent ridden di2 or etap wouldnt get the clamber towards them - for me if you can get di2 then its a no brainer and the propel is a seriuosly nice looking bike, especially in black with deep section carbon wheels

What makes it so great then? That’s a real question of intrigue from me, not a negative comment.

I have fancied Di2 and more so eTap for a while, but the cost has put me off as I find manual Ultegra really good when set up correctly.

How does eTap compare to Di2?
