I decided to get Bianchi Oltre XR3 CV Ultegra Disc 2020 as it was more cost effective. I really had fun building it and learnt a few things about aligning hydraulic disc brakes. Not all road bikes are created equal and this Italian brand is one of the elites within the sport.

I add a few accessories as I customise the bike ready to take advantage of the brilliant weather. Upfront mount for Garmin edge & GoPro hero 7. A Lucia rear light that's one of the best on the market, offering 7 different modes. The carbon bottle cages are aesthetically pleasing as well as lightweight and functional. Weight is extremely important so I will be looking to shave some from somewhere (BODY FAT).
