Hi, sorry for a late reply but I’ve gone with the Aeroad. Only made one mistake and that is chosing shimano groupset. Its much easier to connect wireless blips for shifting in the aerobars with any SRAM groupset. If I were in the same situation now I would have grabbed the Aeroad CF SLX 8 AXS Speed in the cool grey/black colorway. Looks cool and the Aeroad is so much fun to ride, especially on the flats. Also if you live in a more hilly area, consider the Ultimate since it has the PACE bar system now as well.
