My 2014 Defy 3, Few changes includes Spesh saddle, Deda stem, Koolstop salmon pads and Conti gp4000.
You will have to spend a good few quid to upgrade those wheels .View attachment 53311 My first bit of carbon very light compared to my Scott speedster will probably upgrade wheels and tyres next spring,until then I'll ride it as is until mid Oct
How heavy are these wheels ? Was thinking fulcrum 3's as an upgrade next yearYou will have to spend a good few quid to upgrade those wheels .

As I've only been riding for a month I thought would be best to get a nice entry level bike that didn't cost to much encase I didn't like cycling as much as I did when I was younger now I'm hooked and looking at this .

Shhhhhhhhhhhh
let's not tell the better half!!!!!
I do like the look of it. And any review of it would be appreciated. I do like my own one but figured I could use the entry level one for my commute and the new one for my longer weekend rides that way I don't get moaned at for the old one sitting about.As soon as I adjust a few things on mine and get the pedals on I'll let you know what I think.
Looks nice in the flesh though I must say.
At a guess you would be saving 250 - 300 g I'm sure you can find out if you look online . I wouldn't call Fulcrum 3's an upgrade . They seem to be a wheel that has a following at a price point . A bit like the Triban 3 .How heavy are these wheels ? Was thinking fulcrum 3's as an upgrade next year
