The shiv TT is consistently the best looking TT bike! I love every build, I most certainly would have picked it if the xs size wasnt so hard to find and so damn expensive haha.
I am working on a little update for my BMC, finally applying some of the things I learned in college. Took some inspiration from Berk and decided to produce a one piece handlebar/fork (akin to Cuddles and TJs TM01 front ends) using carbon fiber. Wanted to reduce the stack and reach abit and the lightness aint bad either
First layup done! Its 7 layers and now I've got some clean up and smoothing with the dremel as well as some cable routing. Then another 4-5 layers and more cleanup and clear coating. So far the reinforcement/bar and fork junction weigh 16g.

Right now it is as 6540g (14.42 lbs.) but of course is missing the I-Link housings and cables as well as the chain. So It will come in under 7000g (15.43 lbs.) which I can live with. I will also have a Catalyst carbon disc cover going on but that should only add about 150g so I will have a very nice sub 16 lbs tri bike for next year.
I am now thinking that I will have the post, cranks, aerobars and extensions maybe painted the Satin black as well.

Just picked up my first tt bike (other than track pursuit bike)! Fit is pretty close, need to shorten the extensions a bit

TT's round here are either too windy or too hilly for a disc. One day I'll cut the steerer when I decide how low I can go.
Wheels from Dengfu. Garmin Mount made of PVC pipe taped between the bars, rest is 10speed Low end Campag with Centaur brakes & FSA chainset running 54-42.
Only addition is that I'm hunting for a cheap 11-23
