Is this the cheapest carbon bike with Di2? Thinking about finally upgrading from my 5 year old alum bike and don't want to get cucked by LBS prices.

Holy jesus christ on a fucking stick, stay the fuck away from that site. Those bikes are built by retards. Cheap carbon plus dodgy mech work is NOT a good idea and the crank bolts will unscrew themselves and the seatpost will snap on your first ride. Pony up for a real bike or just get Di2 on your existing bike if that's what you literally want.

Ultregra di2 groupset is ~1200, Kysrium wheels are ~350, finishing kit(seatpost, saddle, stem and bars, bartape, tires and tubes) is probably ~150. These are all pretty much the lowest prices you'll find new on the internet. So the frame is $300. That's actually not bad...

Keep in mind that you will 100% for sure have to have any bikesdirect bike taken into a shop and safety inspected. They're notorious for not tightening any bolts down, to prevent any stripping or damage.

nigga if you don't want to get cucked, then don't "upgrade" your frame

Di2 is nice but I'd take disc brakes and chinese carbon wheels over it any day of the week.

Surprised you're all hating on BikesDirect so much.

Yeah, they come assembled like shit. But if you think about it like buying a bike kit, meant to be reassembled, and a boring frame with no status symbolism, then it's fine. You can sometimes get the frame for basically free they price these things so low. If you think your low-end Trek frame is so much better than a BD Kinesis frame you're kidding yourself.

That being said, I would not want to spend big money at BikesDirect. It's just a good way to cheap out on a new bike.
