Wilier Cento Uno SL & Kuota Kharma Tri

[chazmtb]

Wanted to share my stable. Last year, I purchased a Kuota Kharma. I did some tris with it, and now it is my dedicated tri bike.

I have always lusted after Wiliers, especially the Cento Uno SL, with the fleur de lis carbon skin. To me, nothing exemplifies brawn, beauty and grace like the Cento Uno SL. I was lucky enough to find a pristine condition in my size from a very nice seller (who just started posting here) . So this is the build list and weight. The final weight came in at 6290 grams, a little more than the build list weight, but close enough. It was weighed on a fish scale, so I need to go to the LBS to get the actual weigh on a park scale.

Nice bike, but a saddle pointed steeply downward needs some thinking about.

Although it doesn't look really great I kind of like it pointed down more than normal. I find it more comfortable especially for a very lightweight saddle. My Adamo is the same way except for the chop off nose

It's a Halberd, the weapon that decorates the coat of arms of the city of Trieste, not a fleur de lis
