Schmorglebot Posted January 27, 2017 Share It's looks might not appeal to every taste, but there is something beautiful about a machine designed to do just one thing well... in this case, to go fast! Capricorn, Kylie and Duane_Bosch 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koukie Posted January 27, 2017 Share Interesting, a chain that can only be ridden for 320km. Edit: I see after the 320km the special coating is off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Bob Posted January 27, 2017 Share Looks amazing and those jocky wheels are massive! I'm still surprised that they haven't integrated a riders water / juice / whatever and you still have bottle holders sticking out here and there like an after thought when everything has been thought about for aerodynamics.

Nick Posted January 27, 2017 Share Estimated Retail? With eTap and the Enve wheels, I believe international retail is $15,000. Not sure what that will translate to locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem with integrating hydration, once you have drunk the contents it it is just taking up space and difficult to fill when on the move, these guys do not stop to refil... so when you are on the bike for 4:30 - 5hrs is easier to drink the bottle, toss it at a water station litter point and grab another which is handed to you by volunteers Edited January 27, 2017 by shaper Myth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakley360 Posted January 27, 2017 Share the image of the non drive side crank. is that a crack in the frame I see? looks like a massive crack. And what is up with the Mechanically driven hydraulic disc brakes(so it seems to me) I have also recently bitten the bullet to get a TT machine and have to say they are not light at all (at least mine does not rattle) - but man these machines goes well!!

Nick Posted January 27, 2017 Share the image of the non drive side crank. is that a crack in the frame I see? I really don't think it's a crack. We got very intimate with the bike and didn't notice anything at the time. Another angle, although a line is still clearly visible, I think it's something in the construction rather than a failure. There are similar lines throughout the bike. James is racing this bike on Sunday. Lexx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
