Hello everyone,
Which bike would you say is the best deal?
Merida Reacto 5000 2027 at 3050 EUR
CF3 frame and 105 Di2
Canyon Aeroad CF SLX 7 Di2 at 4500 EUR + shipping
105 Di2, DT Swiss ARC 1600 Dicut
Wildcard: Van Rysel RCR-F at 4500€
105 Di2

Im leaning towards Merida because its cheaper and I can upgrade later it how I want. Wheels are not really a concern at the moment. I have the Ultegra wh-r8170 C50. (I dont know if they are better or worse than the DT Swiss 1600)

Bonus thought: Even if I were to spend 4500€, for 5000€ I can get Merida Reacto 8000 with Ultegra Di2, Metron 5D evo cockpit and Reynolds AR60(idk if they are any good)

I wont take into consideration weight because it depends on size and colorway so a couple of grams are not that significant.

I would love everybodys opinion, if you have the bike or not, or if you have better build ideas. Thanks!
