Everybody is awaiting their SRS-1 carbon road frame but surprise they are also debuting a full carbon TT frame.
I think it looks awesome! :D And I'm almost certain (just like all the other flyte products) it will be very decently priced compared to other similar TT carbon frames. What do you all think? :p

BEHOLD!!! The mighty INTERCEPTOR!

I just picked myself up off the floor.

I know the Armed Forces Cycling Team had quasi-demanded a TT bike... Looks like Flyte delivered in a big way. That thing is SCHWEET.

ARGH! They just announced pricing for both the srs-1 and the interceptor.
$1500.00 US for the SRS-1 and $2000.00 US for the interceptor. I was hoping they were going to be cheaper. :(
Well I suppose the interceptor at least is about $500.00 less than other carbon TT frames in its class but still.
Way more expensive than what I was hoping. :(

Who wants to donate to the StalkerZERO TT frame fund? All contributions are tax deductible. :D

I detect a bit of sarcasm in your statement. Please explain what you mean though. I know some carbon road bike seat posts have trouble staying up including the one on my specialized roubaix. But after flipping the clamp I've had no problems since.
In any case though are there things I should know about carbon TT frames?
