My Teambike from Christina Watches, now with Power2Max powermeter and Rotor crank :) The best bike I have ever been riding!

Fantastic.

How are you finding the Power2Max? I'm assuming you would have used a SRM before as a comparison?

And weight of the bike?

I find the power2max very reliable and easy to deal with :) Compared to SRM there is only insignificant differences, but so far I am more than satified with it..

Before power2max was installed it was 6.8 kg, but now I don't know

Nice build! Even nicer that someone built it for you! :thumbup:

How is the quality of the wheels?

And, how is the geometry/handling of the frame? Could you compare it to another brand or type?
Ride it like you stole it

My Shimano C50 are a little bit stiffer, but as light as these FFDW.. They are very well build wheel with great aeroprofile and stiff enough for sure..

I think the frame has a aggressiv profile compared to many other brands.. I don't think you can find a stiffer frame, and in a magical way it is still comfortable after 200 km race :)

Very nice indeed. I'll have to put some photos up of my De Rosa Protos one the build is finished :)

Such amazing frames... I know what you mean about the stiffness yet still comfortable. I love mine and would not change it for anything. Except the new Protos!
