2 straps have died on me (only the straps though).  Was looking at the Pro, but the price.

Do you rinse your strap after each use? I rinse mine briefly in the shower and let it hang on the towel rail to dry....they last me years (and are used 6 times a week).

New helmet day. Decided it was time.

That's the RC20. RC10 is the same bike, but in white. And comes standard with power meter and carbon wheels.

I bought the power meter when I bought the bike and have ordered a set of Winspace Hyper 50mm wheels. The bike comes with Syncros alloy wheels that I'll keep for rainy days. The wheels in the picture belong to a friend of mine who has an RC15, but has since purchased a set of Black Inc wheels, so these are on loan until I get my new wheels.

The bikes comes with Sram Force AXS groupset and Syncros saddle and alloy bars. I've put my S-Works Power saddle on, because my butt is already imprinted on it and I've put on some carbon bars.

The latest in a series of post-bike fit "find a saddle that works" purchases.

So far so good with this one, a decent combination of cushion and support.

Veeery nice - but you need to cut that light bracket bolt down to something less knee cutting size

True (though it's a bike-lock mount, not for a light), it's mostly fine, until it gets bumped, then you suddenly get the stabby-stabby in the knee ????

This is relevant to cycling because I got the van specifically to transport bikes. My old car pictured below was rear-ended last week and if my Thule carrier and bike were on the back, it would have been a total disaster because they are not insured and together worth more than the car which was written off.

Congrats with the new wheels.

 

Two years ago we considered getting one.

Need to see it with bikes loaded, to see the fit.

Congrats

I'm going to get another bike stand tomorrow and then I'll take a pic with them in.

How many bikes do you want to fit in the back ?

 

Are you planning some custom brackets ?

 

 

Can be a lekka project ....
