I'm still intrigued by the claimed aerodynamic and comfort benefits of beam bikes. And since Titanflex seems to be one of the only options that's still around, they're obviously at the top of the list. So, I'm interested to hear from any owners about their experience (pros, cons) with their bikes. And, if you have pictures, those would be good, too.
Also, can someone set me straight on the different models?
It appears that all models have a titanium boom and aluminum frame with the difference being the dual tubes on the Transition vs the monocoque design of the Veteran. The Terminator model is simply a Veteran with Molina's spec, right?
It seems to me that the technology is there to make these bikes not only lighter, but even more aerodynamic, as well. For example, the main frame doesn't appear to have any aero shaping, at all. And, the internal cabling could certainly be done more cleanly. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
