-- Ultegra mechanical groupset?!? Puh-leez. An ///M deserves SRAM Red, Dura Ace, or Campy Record
-- An ///M badge that must add at least 25 grams

And the nail in the coffin... leaving the bike in the lowest gear! Bikes must ALWAYS be in the highest gear for photographing!
Not to mention the bad oil pump on the bike.


Too soon?!
