  • I don’t have any experience with those brands and I’m still pretty new to road cycling, so I can only give my general thoughts.

    You’re right that you don’t need a carbon frame, but I recently switched from aluminum to carbon and the difference was eye opening. Just the amount of vibration that it dampens on pavement has made a massive, immediate, change in how biking feels to me.

    One thing I would consider before making a purchase is the possibility of upgrades/changes that you might want to make in the future. I haven’t looked at the bikes you linked but, as an example, if you were to buy a bike that couldn’t accept a standard round seatpost and stem, then you wouldn’t be able to buy replacements like the redshift shockstop system, which are fantastic.

    But other than that I wish you good luck =⁠-)

  • +1 for Valetudo! I’ve installed it once via OTA and twice by FEL. The OTA was obviously a breeze, but FEL wasn’t that bad. I just watched videos on YouTube for the disassembly and took my time doing each step. I love the UI and the fact that I can SSH into them just for the sheer coolness of it! I think one great thing about it is that it doesn’t affect the software that the robot uses for all its tasks and functions (e.g. vacuuming, mopping, sensors), just that it replaced the cloud and runs it on device.
