Price Paid:  $1900.00 at Eastern Shore cycles

Favorite Ride:
Mt Evans

Bike Setup:
Standard setup. Shimano 105 shifter, ultegra derailleur, AKSIUM wheels

Summary:
I purchased this Transition Comp S-works to have something more comfortable in Florida headwinds. I got it at a tremndous discount. Man this bike is fast. I've put a approx 1000 miles on it and it continues to amaze me. I can't wait to get back into some triathlons.

Strengths:
beauty, stiff, fast. Despite it's weight it climbs quite well

Weaknesses:
a little heavy but not really noticable. AKSIUM wheels are a little cheap. I'm not convinced the hidden brake behind the bottom bracket is a great idea plus it is a little difficult to access for adjustment. It's a TT bike so it os good for mostly straight lines

Similar Products Used:
