Impressions Of All The Stuff I Changed On The R5

With the exception of the S-WORKS saddle, the bike is completely built and I've been out on it enough times to get an idea of how all the new bits feel.  I will start with the bike is shockingly light.  15lb bikes feel a lot lighter than the difference between a 16lb and 17lb bike.  The difference between a 14lb and 15lb bike is even greater.  Even with the Garmin and a full 20oz bottle, it feel silly light when you pick it up.  The universal response is just smiles and head shaking.
