This bike has a very light frame, complete internal cable routing, a mechanical 105 groupset with disc brakes, aero frame/bars and thru-axles. It rides exceptionally well. The saddle was a bit cushy for my taste, so I replaced it with a carbon fiber saddle. It comes with flat pedals (which make great paper weights), so you will want to order SPD-SL or your favorite clipless pedals. I tightened the brake cables a little, but other than that all of the settings were correct out of the box. After about a thousand miles, it still rides extremely well. Spec-wise, it's comparable to a Pinarello X1 105, but costs $1700 less (and it actually has slightly more aerodynamic rims than the Pinarello). Sava has made the decision to target serious cyclists with this bike. They have more expensive models with Ultegra and Dura-Ace Di2 groupsets, but unless you are a Pro/Cat 1 racer, this one will serve you quite well. You will want to use carbon fiber grip gel on the seatpost, as you don't want to over-torque the set screw. Also, Kim - the reviewer below - mentioned the C-shaped piece that goes in the headtube. He is right on the money, as that piece is critical - so don't throw out the box until you find it. The assembly instructions aren't clear, but the cables all fit in the space in the "C". Finally, some of the reviews below are pre-2024 - the year this bike was introduced, so they're referring to a different model. P.s., I now have about 1500 miles on it and it still rides beautifully.
