 what does your build plan look like? are you going for a more aero setup for crits and stuff or a road racing setup?

 I'm gonna use my storck as a crit bike and this will be my ice cream ride bike Razz

ultegra 6800/duraace 9000 mixed groupset, 38mm carbon clinchers. Aiming for 15lbs

 not bad. put some 303 firecrests on it and go all dura ace. go aero or go home (after youve had your ice cream of course)

after i finish my xc race bike i wanna throw some new wheels on the madone. havent decided what yet, i really like mavic and dont have enough money for carbon so maybe ksyriums.

 Yeah. Maybe some better wheels once I get more sponsorship money. I foresee crashes so not worth wrecking duraace. Honestly a waste of money for no notable performance gains. I get all the shop deals but duraace is still double the $$$

mavic is nice and ksyriums are bombproof. Decently light too.

 I feel that, pretty much the same as XT and XTR on the mtb side in terms of roughly the same performance level but double the price.

what sponsorships you got?

 Truth. I have an investor friend sponsoring my road riding.

 thats pretty sick, i didnt know that was a thing. so he invests in your performance in races?

also on the note of crashing with nice stuff, this happened to my friend about a month ago

 Not really a legit thing. He just gives me money for doing well in races. I like it. that sucks muchly. I'm surprised the tire didn't fall off. Looks like a tub to. Hopefully he can ride soon.

 its amazing how little force it takes one of those to bend like that. I saw a video from the 2009 tour where this dude hits a dog in the road at pretty low speed and the carbon just totally bends
