Bike Forums - Hot r Not

nice bike, but 9100 isn't pleasing to the eye. It's almost like Shimano skips a generation.

7400 was nice, 7700 was meh. 7800 was hot, 7900 was fugly. 9000 was hot, and now we get another meh looking groupset.

A little teaser of what's to come for the new bike. :)

Hard to tell but i think I like the black bike more, but I can't stand either of those stems. it's like Jaws is unhinging it's mouth to swallow the bar. ugly.

My new bike build. Its a 2017 Giant TCR Advanced SL, Dura Ace 9100, and Campagnolo Bora Ultra 50's

Looks like the rear wheel is bigger/taller than the front. perspective, man.

Excellent description. Hate the stem. Love both bikes, but the white more, only if you remove the wheel decals.

Bike pic on a couch is weird decision. That angle, while a nice one, should never be used when asking the crowd if your bike is hot or not.

I really like those Praxis chainrings, they always look the business. Doesn't hurt that they shift superbly.

No couch this time. Just a simple #BAAW.

I need to work on that cable management, cut the stem and replace the brakes + cables.

Yeah, this photo is not very flattering; like a mug shot of some drunk with messed up hair.

Looks good to me. I wouldn't touch the stem, just in case, never know, maybe your fit changes.

No more couch, great! But why so careless to cut the rear wheel slightlly out of the photo?!? :foo:

The overall shape and the lines of the bike are beautiful, the bit and pieces are absolutely top-notch

....and it just looks boring in the black on black on black. :(

Tough crowd. The bike is hot. Needs a little work on cables as acknowledged. While I don't like black bikes, this bike isn't black. It is clear coat over carbon. When you do carbon as nicely as Time, why paint it.
