Got my ADH01, mounted spring, 2000 kms to date, best ever Rim system. Fells like a Titanium but with Carbon ligthness. Absorbs vibrations unlike any other carbon bike owned. BB transfer superlative, better than Colnago V3Rs and tarmac SL8. More comfortable. Can almost fall asleep pushing it and feeling just sweat and wind. 53/39 9100. I hear the Conti tires at times...
At 80 kg + 10 kit, supposedly i push 350-400 watts on most workouts. And over 400 when going over 40 km /hour on the hoods. Got it to 60 km hour on a -0.5% gradient. Prev bikes was at 52-53. This thing is planted all the way to 60 and downhill, zero issues over 70.
It is 2-3% slower on aero, through 1-2% less as fast 2nd hour (comfort and power transfer). But it never tires me. Hard to imagine that RIM was still to go. However, my ENVE SES had no wear, so rim still good. Excellent climber.
LEt's put it this way. If Time made its bikes to look exactly like SL8, V4RS, Canondale SuperLab, etc, and had the $$ , no pro woudl want anything less.
Small thing- that headtube top collar kept moving and catching my legs, i immobilized it.
That Pic- 28 July when my Colnago Seatpost slipped twice several mms, went home, grabbed the time and finished that tiresome day. Fixed the seatpost by fusing 0.2mm brass to it with marine grade 5000 psi epoxy.
Times seaptost? absorbant, sturdy, just crazy good for my 80 kgs and slimming down.

I have an itchy trigger finger over an ADH23, looking around the net & the Time website, I see some have the naked carbon logos & others have a white logo painted over the main frame colour which I do not like. Is this an option (no mention on official site) or is this a change brought about by model year, in which case is the carbon logo current? I know I could ask a retailer or Time themselves but....
I've seen your project a few times pass by, I guess on the Facebook group? Cool to see you're using Kickstarter to collect people who were interested.bastjan wrote: ↑Wed Nov 13, 2024 2:49 pmhttps://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ti ... eur-hanger
For those who might be interested
Is this one specifically for direct mount derailleurs (i.e. Shimano only) or also works with SRAM AXS? Another question, aren't derailleur hangers designed to break if your bike topples over to save the derailleur from breaking (a hanger is cheaper to replace than a DA/Red derailleur). Did you take this into consideration?
Both (sturdy vs. breakable) have pros and cons though. I've also had Cervelo hangers that were buttery soft, and once the wind blew above 4bft I needed to pull out my alignment tool again to correct it.
Hey man, I'm the creator of the hanger, you are correct , direct mount hanger is a Shimano standard, Shimano designed this standard such that you can omit the middle linkage, thereby making shifting more precise and crisp, you are also correct in thinking that a derailleur hanger is a sacrificial piece, however I think it's an ok trade off , I've had to adjust my indexing a few times from installing and removing my wheels during my routine cleaning proving that stock hangers are too soft.Ypuh wrote: ↑Wed Nov 13, 2024 3:54 pmI've seen your project a few times pass by, I guess on the Facebook group?

I'm not saying my hanger is flawless in every way, but
considering that and the fact that Shimano deraileurs has a mechanical "crash mode" built into the design ( the derailleur literally disengages with the electric motor to avoid damaging the servo) there's no reason not to go with a stiffer hanger. plus in the event of a crash serious enough to damage my bike/ derailleur, a stiffer hanger would literally be the least of my concern
