Here are my race bikes for the '09 season - probably the finest pair I've ever had, even though I'd say my '07 R3 with Chorus runs the current road bike close. Been a long time lurker on here, and got my bikes for this season partially with the help of this forum, getting in touch with Starnut on here and getting a great setup from him, all dialed in with the help of the Retül. Race wheels for the TT bike is coming in a little while, and pictures of both bikes in daylight, with race wheels on, will follow shortly. (And yes, I will clean the hoods better for that :))

The Super Six comes in at 6,59 kg as pictured, which I find pretty good for a no-nonsense race bike for someone 1,85m or 6ft tall. A brief spec list is listed under, it is pretty much final, except it will probably wear a more aerodynamic wheelset for flatter races, and might get a few smaller upgrade parts like skewers, seatpost and derailleur clamp. An SRM would perhaps be a nice upgrade, but it is somewhat pricier than the PT for now, and would have to be able to go between the two.

Supersix Hi-Mod '09 frame
Full Red groupset except Cannondale Si SL BB30 crankset
Easton EC90 SLX wheels (12-27 DA cassette might be replaced with something with a more useful spacing to race on)
3T Team seatpost and stem
3T Rotundo LTD handlebars
Fizik Aliante
DA pedals
Challenge Criterium tires
Arundel bottle cages

As for the TT bike, it pretty much goes without saying, the pretty great 3T Ventus bar, a mix of Force derailleurs and Rival/cranks and brakes, and has a SRAM 55t chainring coming in.

replacing the hoods is not necessary, you can wash the dirt off.

did you weigh the ec90 wheels?

Like Starnut said, it's the +6 stem on the Ventus.

As for the weight of the EC90s, I didn't get to weigh them before I put the tires on, but I suspect they are at least 50 grams over the claimed weight of 1170 (there have been a couple of posts elsewhere on here confirming the wheels to be up to 100gms over claimed). However, they were a bargain for a low-profile carbon wheelset, and hopefully they'll be relatively durable. The really generic skewers are going in favor of something a little nicer like KCNCs pretty soon, though.

Nice Hi Mod!

One question; why do you have the old SS fork and not the new Hi Mod fork? Just wondering...
