I want to build up a new road bike. I'm training 400-500km a week at the moment and feel like I deserve something more fun then an old steel Colnago.
I want discs, deep Chinese Carbon rims, Hope hubs, and Di2.
I'm in Denmark, so aero is more important to me then weight, as everything's flat ;-)
A few questions though, are the aerodynamic benefits of a deep rim ruined by a disc calliper? What road frames can I buy off the shelf with disc mounts? I was thinking of just getting a friend to braze disc mounts onto a steel frame.. or is there a carbon frame with rear disc mounts I can get hold of?
thanks in advance
and here is a picture of a house, just for fun.
