Spaceboy Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 What do you guys think about this frame? I quite like it, after all, I am not gonna be on the start line in France next Saturday.
Speedi Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 after all' date=' I am not gonna be on the start line in France next Saturday. [/quote'] so whats your point?
Spaceboy Posted June 28, 2008 Author Posted June 28, 2008 It is supposed to be a more comfortable bike with the slightly longer headtube. Nice though!
Minion Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Those thin seatstays make my eyes water. They just look wrong.
JohnP Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 I quite like it. Not as racy as the R3. Something other than red and black would be nice too from them.... like the white R3.
Christie Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I think the taller head tube of the RS is a good concept. I see lots of guys on club rides with lots of spacers under the stem - this would work so much better in thos cases.Stiffness, comfort, etc. should be exactly the same as the R3, excellent.
Ox_Wagon Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 It is a copy of a Specialized Roubaix concept (geometry) which is a good idea.
Spaceboy Posted June 30, 2008 Author Posted June 30, 2008 This bike is gonna have me sitting on it very soon
mbaymike Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Those thin seatstays make my eyes water. They just look wrong. I agree....ssssssssnap...
markelf Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 yip, R3 with relaxed geometry's. cannot go wrong! life-time cervelo backing...cannot go wrong! i have read and heard cervelo reckon they don't even need the rear stays, however some ruling requires it. their chain stay, down tube etc have enough ridgidity not to need or effect the bike, stiffness or ride... thats my 10 cents. over and out!
The Saint Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 i have read and heard cervelo reckon they don't even need the rear stays' date=' [/quote'] Oh so this is the reason they always crack and here I thought it was a manufacturing fault....silly me
markelf Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 MuXmAn - "Oh so this is the reason they always crack...." with that rather loose statement you should change the name to "wiseman"...
KevinV Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Good thing you so skinny P, don't think those seatstays would take my weight! Enjoy!
Spaceboy Posted July 1, 2008 Author Posted July 1, 2008 I think you'll be surprised. I am so looking forward to riding this baby.
