Hi,
I’m looking into one of these two bikes to start adventuring with, and I’m hesitant on which one is better, since they seem to both retail around my budget and seem to perform similarly…
The SLR EX is a lot harder to find, slightly more expensive depending on where I look. Since I’m rather new to bikes, I can’t seem to make much of a difference between their cranksets and cassettes, if I did the math right they seem to accomplish the same things? The EX seems to have slightly better parts from what I understand, but it’s hard to find for some reason and won’t come up on searches on a lot of websites.
