  Guys do you think that's a good bike for starters? I don't want to start enjoying road bikes and change it after one year, I wouod like to improve the frame later on. Also do you guys reckon I can do some trips with it, add paniera for instance? Cheers

    You will likely to change the groupset rather than the frame later.

    Frame is the most upgradeable part of the bike. You will probably find that the higher level models in this range have the exact same frame with a different paint job but higher end groupset and wheels. If anything buy an upgradeanble frame then chenge the various bits later on. Some bits like wheels and saddles are often intentionally low end models both to save cost and hit a pricepoint but also because the manufacturers know that purchasers will often just swap these bits out straight away.

      You mean frame is the most un-upgradable. The groupset would be upgradable.

        Sorry, you are correct you cant upgrade the frame, I meant you can upgrade the bike by retaining the frame and replacing all of the other bits around it. if there is 1 thing you should plan to keep it is probably the frame. Aside from the frame there isnt much else on this bike I would keep.

    If you want to add panniers, you are not after a carbon-framed road bike. This frame does not have braze-ons to attach racks.

    I'd suggest something like this:
    https://www.reidcycles.com.au/reid-4130-shimano.html
    Same price, better groupset. Heavier, but more versatile for what it sounds like you want to do. There are also more heavy-duty touring bikes around.

    If you're set on a road bike, this seems decent for a good carbon frame (and upgrade the groupset later). But it sounds like you may be better off with aluminium - not much heavier, can be repaired more easily, and some are set up for racks and light-duty touring.

      This sort of thing might be the compromise you're after:

    Guys tks for all the tips, I manage to find a second hand Specialized secteur elite disk for a very good price on Facebook Marketplace. Despite being a little bit heavy it has a AL frame with Carbon fork and place to put a bike rack which can support panniers.

  Only sz Small and Large. If they had a Medium I would have bought one, stripped the Group and replaced it with an Ultegra set i have in the garage. Put it on the wahoo for winter as a zwift bike then maybe have it as a 2nd bike. Essentially $800 for a Scot carbon endurance frame. I'm a big fan of integrated cables, dont like external cabling (yes I know it is easier for maintenance) but for $800 beggars cant be choosers I guess.

    'integrated' or 'internal'?

      Internal is great, integrated even better. love the look of the new BMC with integrated cabling!
