Nice bike. They definitely look different from the rest, which I think is cool.

quick question, why are there no spokes on the back wheel? I see that a lot on tt/ tri bikes.

Simply put, it's more aerodynamic. Also notice the front wheel has fewer spokes then normal and has a deeper rim. That also makes it more aero then the average wheel.

To each their own. To be fair, the Pinarello is a weak attempt at the P3....Though like I said, to each their own.

Yea, let us know when your personal one comes in. I've got the Pro version on order...I was first told January, then Feb, now it looks like a march.

My girlfriend said "weeeeeird." I said "I have a boner" (and then reading the above responses, I see I'm not the only one!).

Cool bike. 10gs is pretty steep though.
