The Fairlight Strael 3.0 bicycle

I bought a Fairlight Strael 3.0 in late 2023 and took delivery in the early days of 2024. It's painted the "Monochrome" color and has a Shimano Ultegra Di2 drivetrain and dynamo lighting.

I love this bike. The 56T fits me very well and its as light and nimble as I'd ever need a bike. You can tell that Fairlight sweats the small stuff.

I tend to ride this only for fitness and don't have a rack fitted to it. It's still got almost all of the stock components on it, too, unlike The 2021 Kona Rove DL bicycle. I only changed its pedals, seat, and cockpit.

Electronic shifting from Shimano is crisp and fast, very much fire and forget. It is annoying when the battery dies after long gaps in rides, but I usually remember to top it off beforehand now.
