Very nice. I just managed to score a Hed3 so I'm thinking my 808FC is now rather redundant.

all my unscientific testing show my 808 was faster then my HED3... and lighter so the HED3 experiment ended but it's a beautiful wheel.

watched the Volta ao Algarve TT today and I noticed that some of the Specialized riders had a new fork on the Shiv TT bikes... clearly in response to the relaxing of the 3:1 rule. It looks like all of the QuickStep Floors guys are on the new set up and about half of the Bora guys were on the new set up. The bikes with the new forks are also flat black, as opposed to the glossy, raw carbon look of the older bikes.

They have also shifter the Shiv logo and put it on the top tube. Also don't think they've ever specified that its the TT model actually on the frame before?

I don't think that's true.... pretty sure the logo on the Shiv TT has always said "Shiv TT". At least the modules for sale on Specialized's website show it that way.

New Ridley TT bike? I'm not well versed on Ridley bikes but this thing looks pretty wild. Victor Campenearts' TT bike.

Me on my (now fairly elderly) Cervelo P3. The photo was taken at a mid-winter TT with the temperature only just above freezing, hence the Assos Commander suit and full finger gloves:

Looks like Ridley's normal Dean Fast TT bike but just with a custom TT-handlebar instead of the regular one.

Is anyone in here using the Shimano 55T or 54T chainrings with the 39T? Are there any aero 55T or 54T chainrings that use the Shimano 4 bolt?

Maybe Stronglight? I know they make aero 5-bolt ones as well as regular ones for shimano 4-bolts so perhaps they make a combination of the two. Don't quote me on that though.

I think this photo breaks every rule out there and I will at some point take a better one but this is my steed. Mainly used for Triathlons rather than TT's but I refuse to do the usual Tri thing of hanging loads of stuff off of all of the surfaces! At the very worst it gets a second bottle cage and a small saddle bag when training but for racing a single bottle and no bag.
