Furbz Posted November 19, 2021 Share I have to give it to Aurum, it was fun to unpack this bike. The Aurum Experience Box And a few really nice touches. A hand signed thank you from the Ivan Basso and Alberto Contador. A quick assembly guide  And a few pics of the clever packaging A sneak peak into the Aurum Experience Bag. Including a 6nm torque wrench, Assembly paste, all the Mavic parts including the bits to convert to with wheels to tubeless, frame armour stickers and other spare frame parts I opted to change the Standard Rubino Pro 25mm tires out for some tubeless 28mm GP 5000 tires - of course fill with the brilliant regular orangeseal! This change gave me the opportunity to have a good look at the new Mavic hoops, and they are damn impressive! visually they are stunning to behold. the finishings are right up there. And finally the obligatory full bike shot in front of the wine room Final build weight with this spec on a 52 frameset. 7.345kgs ex pedals and bottle cages in standard trim.  i have yet to ride the bike, but gave it to my father to test (ex SA champ). His initial impression are its a better race bike than than the 2020 Madone SLR! A big statement as its my favourite race bike. I will put the bike through its paces and this weekend and revert back with extra pics and info. The current lot of pictures really do no justice to this paint job. its nothing short of jaw dropping!    Edited November 19, 2021 by Furbz Wayne pudding Mol, splat, Mopkop and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Arum needs some hot weather testing, my home town is known for some exotic, unreleased vehicle testing grounds. PS. Some of the vehicles never make it back to EU.

PkF Posted November 20, 2021 Share I rode that beautiful blue demo Aurum yesterday. Really solid in a good sprint, no detectable flex at all. It is both light and very responsive, holding speed on those lovely short bumps on the way to the Rhino-Lion Park. Great for aggressive racing and humbling your buddies. It also sucked up most of the nasties on the road towards Muldersdrift. Not harsh, as expected on those pretty Mavic wheels. But the saddle pinched my ass a bit…. nonky and Wayne pudding Mol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
