Hello everyone,
I am right before purchasing a new road bike, but cannot decide which one to choose. I want something as good for climbs (with discs) as I can get. I have option to get Rose X-Lite Disc with Sram Force for 5400€ (+ 500€ power meter) or SL7 Pro with Sram 1x for 6400€ (with power meter included).
Rose is a little lighter 7,0kg + pedals, 1400g wheels and has normal crankset. Cost: about 5900€ with power meter.
SL7 Pro is havier, 7,4kg (I think) + pedals, 1540g wheels and only 1x Sram Force crankset. But has power meter and is only 500€ more expensive and is Specialized (better resale value). Cost: 6400€ with power meter.
Do you guys think, is Rose any faster on climbs, or are both about the same? I am looking purely on climbs. I think SL7 is probably faster on flats.
Can it be a problem with only 1x on SL7?
Is SL7 overall better bike?
Thanks for your answers
