Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Giant TT bike

So, i made a post about this bike in the living car free forum, but I thought I would post here too. If your a follower of Giant bikes, you probably know that they dont have a full carbon TT bike out this year. I was shocked when I saw this bike on theri japan website. It is full carbon and has an integrated seatpost. Kindof crazy, wish they made it in a TT version.

A quick look at their website turned up their '08 Trinity C. A carbon TT bike.



That's a curious bike you posted though.

Maybe it's a Litespeed.

And doesn't answer the question of what's going on with a TT frame being used as a fitness bike. I found the one you posted on the Giant Japan site, but there's no discussion of what the story there is (even in Japanese).
