I was going to order a single speed Genesis (day one) but my local dealer isn’t expecting stock until March (I enquired in December) and aren’t taking orders until bikes are in stock because dates are slipping and they don’t want to let people down.

I believe your Specialized is been a good investment as well?. At least give a good rides.
Different kind of bike, but yes I love it. It is a present from Rach so it will always be treasured.

If I wanted a more racey/climbing bike I'd definitely go for the SL7 S-Works as it's a lovely bike. I could never do it justice though on the roads .... I couldn't ride as fast as it would want to go :laugh:

Here in Finland is a retailer which i use it. That Tarmac are gonna build from the frameset which help to get price tag lower, retailer have that frame already. Because some components take some time to order it will take about 12-weeks to get finished. I am gonna remove Quarq powermeter from my Cervelo and install it to Tarmac later, so i need to replace bottom bracket as well. First i was planned Tarmac Pro SL7 but they were all sold out, especially colors i liked.

You’ll replace the bottom bracket or install a converter? Have you thought about getting s works cranks arms? It means you don’t need to muck about with the bb which is incredible with the crank arms. It’s got to be the stiffest set up I’ve ever used. Honestly it’s incredible how responsive it is.

The way i understood, Shimano group sets delivery take some time if it's need to order and that is biggest delay of that Tarmac. But if you want new bike for the summer, i guess now it's right time to make a deal.

Your bike next 5 months, was it yesterdays stage-1 that bad?. Personal punishment perhaps?.

Yesterday didn't help. :laugh:

. I fancied something comfy, quick when I want it and be able to go to shops/panniers. Do an hours ride relatively quick without moving out of Z2 regardless of terrain

New place is 8 miles from nearest convenience store. There is on nearer but means using busy A roads.

Yes i remember you have Roubaix, don't remember exact model. I think Tarmac is a good compromised of aero, and climb. I think i need log in to Zwift and bought that bike from the drop shop ^_^.

I need to replace it. Shimano have a 24mm spindle and that Quarq have 30mm spindle. I am gonna leave my current bike Cervelo to trainer. Elite Drivo2 powermeter is pretty accurate so i won't necessarily need separate powermeter with that bike anymore.

Just seen on ZP that unprocessed FIT files now over 103k :eek:

Be surprised if ZP will be ready for season 2 of ZRL unless they do something pretty sharpish
