Technically, I got the bike 6 weeks ago but it is finally all set up and ready for the first ride today. 🙂
It is a 2024 Specialized STR Comp. I removed the stock GRX parts and put on a SRAM AXS mullet build. It was a cheaper way to go than buying the frame or the super expensive STR Pro. I also got a custom paint job. They gave me some of the paint and I made matching bottle brackets. It was a fun process figuring out what to get and building the bike myself. I am very happy with the results!

A big thanks to Carey and Matt at my local bike store First Mile Cycle Works (https://www.firstmilecycle.com/). They are super knowledgable and great to work with. They ordered the bike, helped spec out some of the parts, and fixed some of my build mistakes. 🙂
A big thanks to Joe and the team at Carbon Solutions (https://carbonsolutionsrepair.com/). If you are in the SF Bay Area, this is the place to go for a carbon fiber paint job. They worked with me to mix up the exact colors I wanted and did an amazing job painting the bike.
