A lack of mudguard mounts holds it back from being the ultimate ‘real world’ road bike
The Future Shock is genuinely brilliant
Seatpost flex makes long rides a breeze

Shimano’s latest R9200 Dura-Ace group has a few options, but none of them include mechanical shifting; it’s Di2 only for Shimano’s top racing group from here on out.
