It's probably just the angle/focus of the shot, but that chainring looks ginormous!

At least a 55t it seems. Wow... That's pretty big for such a small frame.

Isn't that bike supposed to be a Tri frame with aero bars only? Is it comfortable at all with that setup?

tdong 09-07-14 01:24 PM

because it is :) 54/42 for 650c wheels. It is a tri bike but I convert it to road.

since this frame has seat angle from 72.5 to 80 it can be a road or a tri. just like cervelo s5

Odd conversion. It's made for aero-bars, not drop bars. (And it's not a Talon)
How's the handling?

Forget the bike, I'm fascinated by the photography. What did you take that with?

tdong 09-08-14 05:01 AM

Nikon df and sigma 50 art at f1.4

There are rules for posting on this thread, such as valve stem placement, removal of bottles and other accessories, etc... If you post your car in the background, these rules would naturally extend to the auto, which need washed by the way.
