I really like how they sized the components for each size. Still slight room for improvement, but honestly, a great step forward. Seems like a very nice entry level bike, especially if the powermeter isn't terrible (which I am not sure of, there has been a bunch of not-so-good powermeters here lately)

Openly T700 frame, 8.5kg build, random ass wheels, random ass tyres, mechanical shifting with full integration.
It's ""cheap"", assuming shipping is indeed included, but it's far from a no brainer.
If you buy OEM and know what parts to pick, you can get close-ish (you ll spend a bit more), but it will be better. Very different work / time / sweat equity involved though.

Yeah, but they're not after our market. They're building out an actual dealer network in the US where joe consumer can walk in and buy a complete bike with pretty good performance from his standpoint for 2/3's to 1/2 of what the majors charge, and have a real bike shop to support it, along with warranty service. They'll clean up.
