GreyOwl3.0 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Why are all the Campy equipped bikes only using 'RECORD?' I thought they would be using SUPER RECORD? Strange... But that FOCUS is damn cool. Gotta admit, I could see me riding one of those!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keith Posted January 29, 2009 Share White handlebar tape is the new black. Whats the average weights of the above bikes? About 6.8kgs I'd say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted January 29, 2009 Share The Light weights on the milram bike are actually clinchers' date=' But man I would take any bike from this lot!!![/quote'] Are you serious? Didnt know they made clinchers...Where's Merckx, he knows all about those FOCUS frames https://www.sigmasport.co.uk/app/secure/ProductDetails.aspx?FamilyID=2177 R37,413.16 Lightweight GIII STANDARD CLINCHER WHEELSPrice: ?2,642.49 (RRP ?2,700.00)Sizes: Campagnolo, ShimanoThe Lightweight Standard C wheelset is based on our proven ?Standard? model. It has been designed for use with wire bead or folding tires. To achieve best possible results we have redesigned the entire rim. FIRST DELIVERY DUE MID MARCHLightweight Standard C wheels come with all technical innovations of our current Generation III wheels. The new all-carbon spokes and the direct bonding of spokes, rim and hub is taken over from our ?Standard? and ?Obermayer? wheels. New is the rim: It has to be light and stiff like on all our wheels; additionally, the sidewall must meet extreme physical demands.Tire pressure and brake calipers both put large lateral forces on the sidewall. Add to that the heat created by braking from high velocities, and you have quite a task for the engineering department. Carbon fibers excel at withstanding longitudinal forces, and the poor heat transfer capability of carbon fiber materials let temperatures rise quickly, possibly leading to problems both at the rim and for the pad compound. We employ a special temperature resistant resin enveloping our high-tensile fibers to easily meet these demands.No rim tape is needed, further reducing overall weight.

RaymondC Posted January 30, 2009 Share Its hectic even A bike that is below the weight limit can be super strong, Because of the advancements in materials used titanium carbon ect ect why dont they just make the weight limit 6kg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
