ultegra-pdUltegra vs Ultegra SL

Ultimately, the main difference between the Ultegra and the Ultegra SL, is more than just price, although this is definitely a factor. The Ultegra is less expensive than the newer version of the Ultegra SL.

If you’re only looking for the new frame, many recommend to choose the Ultegra. If you are wanting to continuously upgrade, or upgrade all at once, it’s not a bad move to consider all the advantages of the weight difference options, should your budget be sufficient.
