Wheels of Happiness

For every new bike that you buy, every upgrades, there are positive (PROS) and negative features (CONS)
that  you observe... For instance with regards to Vias Venge S works that I acquired.  I experienced both pride and regrets.

Pros:

1.  It is a handsome show bike;  it is loaded with Peter Sagan imagery and performance;
2.  It looked sharp and fast

Cons:

1.  It is heavy;
2.  Its ride is harsh
3. The assembly especially with regards to the cabling was challenging.  The mechanic had 3 tries all ready to get it perfect:  first on May 1, and then yesterday, May 3.   As of today, the front brake is not working.

I was not joking when I saw a Colnago Concept bike carbon frame that  sold for P25 k.  I would have taken than instead.  I could have assembled this myself... It had BB 30 frameshell on it.
