I reckon it's a B'Twin Triban 3 fork that's been repainted... just a hunch.

Really a nice looking bike.

Yes, authentic - painted by Pinarello, colors/design done by the lead artist at Zwift using some of our company colors. Not as sexy as black, but I already have black bikes and this one is special. It's mounted up to a trainer right this second actually - about to go for an indoor ride. Hope the weight savings helps me out.

Love the shape of the frame, the all black fork, the disc brakes.... hate the livery, - just too much going on for me with that top tube, bottle cage and the American flag looking seat tube.

It has been a long time since I first posted here...she has gone through a pretty major crash (which resulted in a few upgrades) and she's got some new wheels!

Hot. Especially like the "stainless shifters"

Here's a crap pic of my rig with a fresh cut steerer

The combination of gloss and flat black is slightly annoying. Also it does not appear that the red on the frame and bottle holders are the same shade. If you are going with the "matchy-matchy" approach the colors need to match. That being said I actually like the bike.

Hot. My eye is constantly drawn to the fork, which is the hottest part.

Hot. Great proportions and angles. Love the polished titanium looking silver paintjob. Not a fan of 32 spoke wheels on road bikes though.

I like it. But that might simply be too many spokes for a 'hot'.

I'm getting a new bike, I think, so I thought I'd take a peek around here. Think I'm going with a Fuji SST - might be a little while before I brave posting it here though.
