English racing green.

GCN have a nice video up about how 3C make their bikes. Very interesting process compared to the usual carbon layup technique.

Nice bike BTW! You seem to have an excess of them!

I think I have read they build to mtb standards . As in there structure and strength .

 

yeah I know , bought a medium stupidly . Doesn’t seem as if anybody else likes them though .

My Cooper . Di2 with Xtr rear derailleur. Fitted some new 650b x 47 vittoria tyres 3 weeks ago. Hopefully test them this week. Right shifter down and left shifter up . The bike is amazingly fast,way faster than its servant . Absolutely love this bike ✊ 

Keen to hear how comfortable it is on gravel.

This looks like an unbelievable deal on a titanium gravel bike. Anyone checked one out?:

Looks very interesting

I wonder if that is actually a good titanium bike, or titanium for the sake of it.
Either way, that's a good price!

Daaaaamn! I have an Exploro RaceMax on order - it has been delayed twice and the latest delivery date is Dec - just in time for the harsh Euro winter ????

I would sell a kidney to get it in the raw carbon finish.

Patience Eldron patience.....

I think I am just going to chill on my Cannondale for now. I would prefer the 3T but I have other financial priorities at the moment... Haha
