Anyone own a Ribble CGR

[Hugo Stiglitz]

Thoughts, especially compared to other similar bikes, weight, any need for upgrades etc?

Probably a long shot as not many will own one on here

I've got a CGR SL with Shimano 105, had it about a year and a half now. I was using it as a road bike alternative throughout the winter.

It's a nice bike (for the money) does everything well, but perhaps a little bit too flexible. Mine has got the standard Aksium wheels and they weigh a ton. When they wear out I'll replace with a better/lighter wheelset.
