My LBS saves scraps of tape which are perfect for aero bars. Ask your guys if they have any scraps and you can probably score some descent new bar tape for free (I'm cheap like that, but bar tape, like everything cycling, is expensive!!!!).

Mostly train. I've raced it a few times and won the Saturday Slamfest with it once. Really comfortable bike.

Heavy though.

No nice wheels, though.

Slight update to the bike and a little different way of processing the photo:



First crit of the year is next week. First TT is tomorrow (on the Bianchi D2 Crono Carbon).

Yeah...

Those steel Trek boat anchors can do and be anything. This one has been repurposed into my cyclocross rig/plow now.

Sweet ride 3k. Love the super six frame. Think the whiteish fork throws it off a little but nevertheless, awesome bike.
