Arnold: Are you referring to Garmin firmware update, or to Creo firmware update?

Oh sorry, I meant the Creo firmware update. Even the Specialized ConnectIQ data field is now blank

Not sure whether to give a thumbs up for the photo or the bike, so have two

Out of interest, was the seat post originally a dropper and if so what seat post have you changed it too?

Wow. Pretty!

I'm always amazed at how much a set of wheels can change the look of a bike. Big thumbs up from me too.

I am always amazed at what a set of wheels can cost!!!! Lol!

After market Boost wheels for the Creo, in particular, are expensive and difficult to source on this side of the pond. With that said, it's nice to see DT Swiss come through.

Those are at least $2,500... I've been wanting a lighter wheelset but I guess I just have to live with mine.

Very nice. I just bummed out my wife and told her one of these under the tree with a red bow will be acceptable. It would be the twin to my (as yet) stock carbon comp Creo SL Evo.

There are cheaper quality wheelsets out there. I recently ordered a set of Chinese Yeoleo carbon wheels for my Cannondale Lefty 3. They were able to source a Lefty hub for me and build a custom wheel at no added expense. I originally wanted to go with Hunt wheels, but they weren't able to build a front wheel with the Lefty hub.
I'd be willing to bet that Yeoleo would be able to build a wheelset to fit a Creo for a very reasonable price.

Those wheels are beautiful.

I've communicated with them a looooong time ago, and during that time their offer didn't give me a weight advantage. How heavy is your pair?

The Yeoleo website list them at 1410g. The Lefty front hub might increase the overall weight slightly. My stock wheels are just over 2000g.

Thanks for the figures
