I upgraded my aethos to stage 5, bought the sl8 and maxed it, bought the shiv disc, now at stage 3, and i still have 76 million drops… 19 more hours on the tt bike and the proj74 is mine, then I’ll need to ride only 8000km to upgrade it 
Now i know what to do with all those drops.
It’s silly because, it’s ridiculously, ill thought out, for newer riders, they can upgrade the three frames, in time, spending their drops but you can forget buying the halo bike, for a long time, so it is silly!!
I have many times complained that Zwift makes all their missions and challenges far too easy, and they finally came out with something that is an actual challenge and here we are with people complaining that it is too hard… it’s ok to do hard things!!!

honestly mate, it’s just a game
But everyone had to do the kilometers to get the drops, why should newer riders be entiteled to get a free ride ?

Your missing the point, the hard work is done!! And now I’m left with a frustrating few months of grinding drops, do you understand?
We had to put in all the same time to earn the drops. Except, when we were doing it, there wasn’t a prize to look forward to at the end. At least you have some reason to work harder to earn them. It’s not like the rest of us have any advantage. We have invested a lot of time and money into this platform to get where we are.

No its not, you are missing the point! As Peter pointed out above, why should new Zwifters get it for free while the rest of us have been grinding it for years to earn all our drops? You want something for nothing.
You will find no sympathy here..

You’re not supposed to get those hole bikes after only a couple of months. The only exception is the tron bike aka concept Z1, you actually get drops while working on it.
Grinding drops is the hard work.
They did with the halo bikes as well, a few weeks and some people have the halo bikes…
Factory challenge is a bit better.
But how many are legit and not “droppers”? For the average person it is a nice challenge
Who knows the answer to that? Wait, I know who knows… 
700 kilometers on the level or are we talking about downhill km’s?
I saw someone the other day with over 500 km on Ventoux.
What got you started on Zwift, since you are new?
I have 47 million with just one more upgrade (700K payout for 2 seconds faster per hour, lol)
You can earn up to 100,000 drops up the Ventoux in just one ride. Just do that 100 times, boom, done.
