I had the pleasure of meeting him about 3,4 years ago after the World Championship. He was going on a cruise and stopped by in one of the bike shops in Miami. He bought a couple of old bikes (but new) at this shop. The guy that own's the shop has very old but still new bikes. I guess he somehow found out and took a little trip to the shop. I talked to him for a bit, super nice guy.... His bike collection must be very interesting, we should contact him and possibly have a WW member go by and take some shots of his collection.

The frame seems to be an Intro, probably custom made for Erik and his Extreme Power. But you all know, it's a TT frame ;)

The outer chainring is a boringly normal Dura-Ace 9-speed (FC-7700), the inner ring could be the standard 10-speed(FC-7800), cause it's more polished.

Would those bars be made by FES per chance?

The chainring in the oridginal pic isn't a standard DA.

Image, the bar I don't know... perhaps we should ask Stefan, that he could ask Erik...

The saddle is a Concor light Image

...and he uses "Lightweight" brakepads. Image
