AndreZA Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 The new Supersix Evo 2012. They say 695g but they are showing 650g on the scale. Complete bike is 4.95kg. http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/news/2011/05/05/1304588327685-1wcqlosgd12br-800-75.jpg http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/news/2011/05/05/1304588327691-tyms1p91xsy1-800-75.jpg http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/news/2011/05/05/1304588327697-1pfq5fx8cdtxz-800-75.jpg http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/news/2011/05/05/1304588327678-hojr1f6gc18y-800-75.jpg
udxcob Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Omw......speachless, it must be made from rice paper weave and not carbon weave
Eugene Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 I still cannot understand why these guys go to so much trouble to make bikes and parts lighter when the UCI minimum weight is 6.8km. Unless you are only training on this bike, it cannot be used in races.
trekpostal Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 It's not made for the pro's but mass US market - also for idiots like Bender and I that are sold on C'dale
splat Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 (edited) I still cannot understand why these guys go to so much trouble to make bikes and parts lighter when the UCI minimum weight is 6.8kg. Unless you are only training on this bike, it cannot be used in races. They make great Weight Weenie Project Bikes!Boasting rights @ the coffee stop etc. I suppose it also gives the guys limited by UCI rules scope to use power meters etc and 'normal' parts and still be on edge. I assume Liquigas will be riding these @ the Giro. The price must be eye watering! Edited May 5, 2011 by splat
Barend de Arend Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Some of the smaller tubes remind me of the CAAD10 -- especially in matt black.

Unless you are only training on this bike, it cannot be used in races.What will eventually happen is, all the manufacturers will make 600 gram frames and then prove they are safe and strong and slowly UCI will review there low weight restrictions. In the meantime it allows pro's to put heavy power meters etc. on there bikes and still be 6.8kg.

Spinnekop Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Nibali was riding this bike at Liege-B-Liege.First time I saw pictures of it was at a training ride in February the Liquigas did. Not ugly!! They are dropping the hourglass seat stays. They are thinner. The chain stays are flat like the CAAD 10 and Flash bikes.Head tube is a LOT thinner than the current bikes.Internal cable routing for the breaks but not the gears....mmm.... BB not as bulky as the current SS.
Spinnekop Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 maybe its 695 including headset? If I read right, the 650g will be the "Ultimate" frame.....the 695 for the normal stock (painted) frames.Sounds like the black "Ultimate" frame is not a production unit as yet....

Nee jong Spinnekop,daai ding sal nie jou gewig kan dra nie!!Bly maar by jou swaarder frame...)
RABUBI Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 nee moer, dit lyk soos my eerste cervelo. Net lelikeren duurder. Gaan dit jou weight kan dra?
Scalpel Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Nee jong Spinnekop,daai ding sal nie jou gewig kan dra nie!!Bly maar by jou swaarder frame...) Moet jy nie gaan draf of iets nie!!! Cervello of Opel Kadet?
Spinnekop Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Moet jy nie gaan draf of iets nie!!! Cervello of Opel Kadet? Nee jong......ou Nochain ry mos nou (saam) ander mans op 'n fiets....hoor hulle gaan die nuwe record tyd probeer opstel daar op die Kremetart saam "_69_" (Of was dit nou 47...... Maar wag....voor ek nou weer my poot dwars in my vet gat indruk laat ek loop maak asof ek werk.......
