Nice I see you’ve got the mcfk seatpost any good? What bars do you have?

Good looking bike! How much does it weight? I’m wondering this frame - aluminati rules :slight_smile:

It’s a Bontrager XXX barstem 40cm x 110mm. Thank you, I built it up with hill climbing in mind and while I haven’t tried it on anything worthy yet, so far it’s more than decent.

I’ve only had it for a couple of months and fit wise, it’s better than the 25mm setback CPX seatpost that came with the frame. The barstem is the Bontrager XXX 40cm x 110mm but I’ve sanded it down to remove the gloss and red that was on it.

TR should pick twelve bike pics from this thread each year and publish a calendar. And this should be October’s pinup. :+1:

@Batwood14 Beautiful bike, Mine is on order. 21 month wait though. I won’t see it until 2020 :persevere:

Took me 18 months to get mine…sooooooo worth the wait :metal:

I have the same one… Found it for sale for only $900 Australian dollars. Just a bit dusty and needing a service. Wanted it for a training bike and it’s now my favourite.

Which bike is that?

@deepakvrao Titanium custom bike made by Firefly.com.

I think 17lbs with the race wheels on. Its pretty heavy compared to my buddy’s CAAD X.


My new handbike, Quickie Shark Carbon.

In the race setup there will be a 26-inch Zipp 404 front wheel, and a footrest added. Still some work to do with the sitting position.

Forgive me if the question is ignorant, but I haven’t seen many of these or spoken to people who use them.

How’s the climbing when using these bikes, is there a limit (percentage incline) to which it’s doable and after that it’s just not doable anymore?

Thinking about muscles that are being used, weight of the bike vs traditional bikes etc.
