I am also interested in the Pro. I recently picked up a IRO Mark V frame to build, but may sell that now to put towards the Pro.

Will the Kilo TT Pro be something you will regularly stock? Assuming it sells but i don't think there will be a problem with that. Thanks.

seriously? posts about bike fit and colors. . very annoying. the kilo picture thread has plenty of that already.. look there. everyone wants all the answers without looking.

the purple hasn't been photographed yet, as stated many times.

I've been all through that thread, bub. All you needed to say was "the purple hasn't been photographed yet".

However, I am going to do everything I can to keep our SS/FG bikes way below the market prices
including selling the Kilo TT Pro for as low as I can
Do the Kilo TT and Kilo TT Pro use the same frame?

The Fed Chairman gets his remarks scrutinized less than does Mike BD.

+1. I wonder whether the performance obsessed OCP's are a bigger pain than fixter fashionistas?

But the 'irrational exuberance' remains the same.

Bikesdirect put up the pre-pay option on the KILO TT today except for the 55cm frames aren't listed. Someone turn on the "Cog-signal" for Mike ad BD, I want to prepay a 55 already.

Hey Mike,

How about a Geometry chart that includes the 47cm frame?

Also, will the 47cm have a frame only option on bikeisland anytime soon?

KILO TT PRO SAMPLE IN

I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS BIKE
and I like the 2" aheadset spacer shack - so you can put your stem about anywhere

















I know Matt Gray will look good; I think Gold Wheat will be nice; and CREAM should be very goos with the all black trim. But I like this Orange

Great looking bike. Love the colour.

However, I would still go for the original Kilo TT just because I like the name "grape soda" for a colour.
