2016 Madone 9

[han1337]

i will be pushing the button on the madone project soon..
But there is one important thing left to know.

Is there enough clearance for my stages Powermeter (on Dura Ace Cranks) ?
Does anyone know this or can measure it on his new madone?
Otherwise I might have to wait until there is a madone at the shop.

Stages needs 10 mm clearance,
could anyone measure of this is available between the left crank and bottom bracket?

What's the size? H1 or H2?

that spacer stack reminds me of a cylon

No, just no! Why do people buy bikes with a geometry which they don't fit? I like the bike but those spacers....

It's H2.

[AlexFig76]

56 cm h2. It actually doesn't look bad in person.

Hello Alex,

Nice bike, the Theme looks great, stunning to say the least.
I really like the project one finishes, they look really impressive.
I hope you can get rid of some of that spacers in the future!

Please tell us a bit of how you find the isospeed and compilance at the back, as soon as you get it for a spin.

And could you measure the distance between your dura ace crank (left) and the bottom bracket, or at least tell me if it looks like there would fit a 10mm allen key between them or if it is really tight?
This would be very nice to know as I want to fit a stages there ..

greetings

From the pic, it looks like a huge setback for the saddle as well. You're sure you aren't better off with 58cm?

Lots of tire kickers looking at the one in our shop. I they are discouraged because you cant add more spacers!

AlexFig76 that P1 looks great. Electric is the only way to go on this bike IMO. What is your final weight on the build?

[spdntrxi]

what kills me on the spacers in the lines in between.. can't that make the transitions from spacer to spacer smooth ?

H2 and spacers .. why didnt you get the domane? All the 'aero' is going to be killed by your position.
No matter how aero it is the bike only contributes to 20/30% drag; the rest is rider i.e. position.
