I fancy an aero bike because they look cool. I have insurance money from my broken one, and am planning to get one of the above with Ultegra Di2. The Cervelo seems to be really quite practical (normal brakes, good clearance, reportedly comfy and stiff albeit not super-aero), but it is pretty pricey – £4k RRP with cheap-ass wheels – can probably get it for about £3600. The equivalent spec Felt is nearer £3400 (Wiggle, with discount). The Canyon is way cheaper – £3500 with Reynolds Strike wheels, or £3250 with Mavic Cosmics.
So, first question: does anyone have any direct experience of any of the above? I can get a test ride on a Cervelo, but Felt dealers seem thin on the ground, and, well the Aeroad is a Canyon.
Second question: 50 – 60 mm deep wheels, is it realistic to expect to ride those _most_ of the time except for the filthiest / windiest of weather? I’d get some shallow wheels for winter etc. too, but not much point having fancy deep ones if I rarely used them.
Thanks all!
