Now that's a throw back! I bet the frame is not far off a modern aero :D

Need convincing of the weight saving benefits offered by carbon compared to traditional materials? This innocuous little component is a perfect example. :D :thumbup:

Superb.
If the FD plate position is correct would you bond those two pieces together?

Hi
Good point! Yes that could be an option, I guess if it ever got damaged it would be an easy job to grind off and replace. I hadn't really thought about bonding it on.

Ah yes I've seen their frame, some very nice and well thought out ideas. Coincidentally my second TriRig brake calliper arrived last night. I have a couple of my own ideas in the pipeline!! :thumbup:

Ready for a quick blast with my new TriRig Omega X brake callipers fitted http://www.tririg.com/store.php?c=omega
I love the design of these, elegant, powerful, aero, lightweight.
Also sporting Di2 front and rear mechs now in 'Stealth' colour scheme.

Madfiber wheels sadly went out of business, shame as they're an amazing ultra lightweight wheelset

How did you go about painting? I'd like to blacken my 9000 too, but have no idea what to begin with.
