I got this on sale because they are changing their name to just “Ari”. It came with a 1×11 SRAM Apex group and straight bars which I never intended to keep. This is an aluminum frame and carbon fork.
I picked up a 2×11 GRX group and got everything swapped over last night. I took a chance and ordered Ritchey Butano bars. I really like the shape and the flat top section. I’ll tape it after I do a few shakedown rides.
The only thing I don’t really like about this bike is that it has a through axle fork and a QR rear, but I’ll live with it.
