Building this up as an endurance bike to race TAW next year. First new bike I've had for 7 years.
It will initially be built up with Ultegra 6800 and upgraded to 6870 DI2 once I find some cheap bits.
Could do with some advice on wheels/tyres. First set of discs and always like the DT Swiss hubs, probably go with the 350 and a front dynamo. No idea on rims but should be at least 32 spoke count. Thinking Schwalbe s-one tyres but I know there are better tyres out there.
Also need some help with brakes in regards to whether or not I go for TRP spyres or HY-RD?
Finishing kit will be whatever I have in parts bin and will gradually upgrade. SMP Dynamic saddle.
Also saw someone posting some nice carbon mudguards recently but again welcome suggestions.
