I need some clean undies now

Those seat stays are like straws!

[MTB_Roadie]

what is the weight?

['Dale]

what is the weight?

I would guess, according to media reports, at legal limit - 6.8 with weights in the seat tube.

 

Dunno though whether this one is the same spec.

 

@ CWC - checkit out and leave your wallet at home.

Don't they usually just fit an SRM powermeter on to make it legal?

as opposed to the weights in the stays...

Zac,

 

This frame is so light.

More than just the SRM powermeter was needed to get it to 6.8!

 

You won't catch Cancellara or Hushovd-type riders on this baby...

Too much flex if you're of the heavier type.

While a number of their colleagues are already in racing mode at the Santos Tour Down Under or about to start their seasons at the Tour de San Luis in Argentina, Ivan Basso and Peter Sagan were among the Liquigas-Cannondale riders still fine-tuning their form at the team’s training camp in Cecina, Tuscany during the week.

 

One of my fave riders, Peter Sagan, who will focus on the Classics. And right below, the team rolling through Tuscany...

Sagan came 5th when Gorilla Greipel took 1st yesterday.

 

So, nicely done, beating a top field.

 

What a power sprinter!
