Comfortable and fast. Makes riding self-motivating. Get one if you can.

To set the stage: I'm a weekend fitness rider, upgrading from a 2014 Roubaix Sport, so I don't have the vocabulary to do this review justice. I'd wanted to buy a Pro, but this is what was available. I told my wife that the disc brakes were safer - although it'll likely be a few years before I take this out when it's wet. I'm about a month and a couple hundred miles in. On to the bike. To start with, it's very smooth. The shock works as designed. It gives the feeling of riding a train, on traintracks - soaking up much more of broken pavement than I was used to. And the impact of each non-bump appears to add up - my back and shoulders are less stiff than I'm expecting on my longer rides. One note, I'm finding the adjustability of the spring less useful than I'd imagined. I played with it the first couple rides, and there are small handling differences that take some getting used to (e.g. there's a bit of squish when making a sharp turn on downhills - it's fine once you remember you're not about to die), but once I got the hang of it, I've just set it 'max squish' and focused on other things. That being: speed. Wow. I'm averaging 1.5 mph faster (bigger than the jump when I put 50mm carbon wheels on my Sport). It's hard to explain why. It's just 'easy to pedal'. Sounds corny, but almost like there's a motor in there. It's not just the higher gearing, or better aerodynamics, because I feel it equally on ascents. If I had to guess, I'd say the bottom bracket is a lot stiffer, and power that I used to put into bending various parts of my bike is now getting out to the pavement. In any case, it's really fun. There are a number of other good things about this bike, along the lines that you'd expect for something of this caliber. Yes it's light, the shifting is predictable, and the brakes work well. What would I change? I'd add a 46cm handlebar option. And I'm somewhat interested in whether I'd be able to tell a 5k difference between this and a Pro.
