I really love the paint job on that bike.

me too. I think it's way better than the RHC livery

Are you at least a Liverpool fan?

I'm not a fan of professional sports in general. definitely not british football. had run ins with one too many goons in one too many european cities to ever associate with that nonsense. uhh...if you're asking.

Ok this is somewhat unasked but my only takeaway is "damn this dude must be well off" lol

don't have kids. haven't owned a car in a decade. I am definitely not by any definition hurting but the only bling in my life is my ride :D

Yeah! Most people here can't afford a *checks notes* aluminum bicycle.
No, I know this is a special edition, but I think it's around $1,500 USD which is not an extraordinarily high price for a quality frameset, and the sort of splurge that a gainfully employed, single, car-less person should be able to afford themselves if they otherwise live within their means.

I know aluminum is not that fancy and I'm happy for OP but throw in those carbon rims (if really that brand) they ad another grand roughly, dura ace cranks etc. I estimate it shy under 3k I think. Sure it's "easy" money if you're working and don't have other costs but damn that set up is tasty, although of course you don't need cash for a tasty build !

It also could have been build up over time or at least components gathered over time and a splurge on the frame. That’s how I built my ride up. Saving, buying at the right time and eBay.

They’re real (fakes don’t have the internal spoke nipple) but second hand from some Instagram track bike dude in Hong Kong. Then I had them rebuilt with sapim cx ray spokes. $1200 total. Frame was 1100€ and yeah I sold all my vintage shit (the colnago went for 1600€ itself) and bought the drivetrain and cockpit all new.
And I wish I got the pro vibe stem instead of the s-works but maybe my next bike fit will bring me good news and I’ll need 115 or something 🤣

Nah, you're right, it's not a cheap build by any means. I just don't think it's outrageously expensive if cycling is your main hobby and sport, although I admit that in my riding group, I'm more likely to see ZIPP and Bontrager carbon rims than ENVE.
And here I am rocking DT Swiss alloys on my main road bike.

I will forever ride enves just for the reaction I get from jealous Roadies. I love it too much

Is that for doing extra gnarly skids??

Damnit, Dale!

I imagine skidding on that pin would send you flying.

You beat me to it. Well done, you.
Hahaha. This is Anfield!
Bikes are for riding! /s
