New K-Force graphics on cranks, post and (OS-99) stem.

Oh. The Shimanoesque 4-arm spindle is new, yes. I missed that.

Well that is interesting. Not because of the Trek we knew all about that, but because the bike appears to have a green front end, and that isn't a current model. Wonder if he is on the Domanesque carbon frame already

There was a similar thing around here a few years ago when Graeme Obree was still racing regularly in local TTs. Getting caught for 1 minute 3 miles into a 10TT isn't great for your morale :lol:

Those Q rings? or the QXL's? Look to be pretty oval but not sure if OSymmetrics or not...

Like being passed by a motorbike. Alex Dowsett rode one of our club events last season, I watched him start while I "recovered" on the verge, he was going at 30mph after just a few pedal strokes - awesome.
