Dang, I want that bike... Please name the make, so I can download pics to drool over!

It is a custom GURU Tantrik frame. I don’t think you can find many images of this particular frame online since it was a very limited production and all were custom ordered.

I went to the guru site, and didn't see it. That is a sweet looking bike. When I hit Lotto, I will inquire about getting one!

Thanks. That's a smokin' Lynskey. I like the compact bars too. I think I need to replace mine.

Guess what the stork brought in today.

My Lynskey Helix OS is going to have a brother soon.

Although I got the R330 as a build kit with SRAM Force, I have decided to substitute in various other components.

I have started the ordering process already - starting from the 2012 SRAM Red Quarq GXP 34/50 170 mm crankset.

Since I have my Helix OS to ride now, I will be taking my time - perhaps two months to gather all the components.

But, I could not wait to share my excitement now.

I guess we all got our R330's at the same time.

Congrats on the awesome and beautiful build. I like the red accents but I already did that for my Helix OS - SRAM Red, Chris King Red Inset headset, Fizik Alliante Red braided carbon rails, wheels with Red DT-Swiss prolock hex nipples, and am only missing a red seat collar. Would you consider a red seat collar?

I got the R330 with the black Cane Creek 110 headset - so I decided to use black accents this time. I have an appointment for a bike fit tomorrow to determine a geometry for 4 hour+ rides for a comfortable stem length, steerer tube spacer height, handle bar drop and reach, seat post height and offset, saddle angle, and pedal cleat position and angle.

I will probably order an ENVE stem to match the ENVE fork. Apart from that, hmm...

Thanks! I actually had the shop order a red seat collar, but it was the wrong size. I will put one on at some point along with red skewers. I plan on upgrading wheels too. I'm just not sure which rims yet, but the they will be black along with black spokes, hubs and red nipples. I do want to change saddles, and will try to match it to the rest of the bike also.

Interesting LYNSKEY article. Gives some history.

Yesterday's ride.... heavy rain, got squeezed to the side of a hill by and oncoming car, big impact on side of torso and scraped left thigh, 30K to turn back or 30K if i continue the look.... so i decided to SUCK IT UP and finish what i started.
incidently no scratch whatso ever on the bike, not even on the levers :)

Dan333SP 10-04-12 10:05 PM
