Rorschach
Didnt pay $250 for this custom title
I've come to the conclusion over the last 9 months that my body isn't going to cooperate with my desire to ride a meat-powered bike so I'm (eventually) going to join the eebrigade.
There are a lot of eebs out now and I want to try and narrow things down before I splash money down on something. Ideally I'd buy a frame and transfer stuff over but given the manufacturers don't sell them separately so thats out.
Next is the choice between full fat and lightweight bikes.
I'm a chonky boi at 178cm and currently 107kg post morning wee so hitting 115kg by the time I've had a feed and gotten on the bike with a decent supply of water.
I'm more interested in a lightweight bike as I'm not doing all day epics. more getting out for a couple of hours (25km and ~500m elevation) and simply want to get up the hills my chunk has me concerned about range anxiety.
Do I need to be concerned, or should I be OK given my distance and elevation
The bikes I'm looking at are:
Levo
Levo SL2
Fuel EXe
Orbea Rise
Giant Trance X Advanced E+ Elite
