yep.

I drilled a small hole in the middle of the transition hook.

I have 5 zip ties on the cage. 2 for each of the holes on the cage. Then the 5th on the top flat bit of the cage looped to the hole I drilled on the transition hook. (a bit overkill but secure)

To reduce the chance of ejection even further I have an elastic/hair tie thing cut and tied to the hook and made into a loop that goes onto the mouth of the rear bottle .
you can sort of see it here


I can take close ups later if you want them

If you already have a delta mount, you just use this.

If you don't have a delta mount, just buy the whole setup.

I personally already had a delta mount, so I just bought that piece in the first link.

I drilled no holes, not as cost effective as just using zip ties, but there is literally ZERO play in the bottle cage unlike zipties.

FYI I have minimal play with the zipties.

You just have to tighten them evenly on both sides and pull them tight. Pliers help to tighten them even further

Yea, i understand, but with zipties, you have to replace them once in awhile because they tend to stretch overtime and it really just isn't as solid as the xlab mount. That being said, 1000 pack of zipties is definitely a lot cheaper than the mount. I also did not want to drill into the saddle.

Thinking about de-badging my wheels. Thoughts from anyone who has done it?

Thank you for the proper set up for the cables and handlebar extensions. It makes all the difference in the world in these glamor shots.

It was about 1250 euros for the frame, a bargain;) A bike shop in Holland had bought all the bike from the Argos team and was selling them, I was lucky enough to be high on the waiting list

My new AR5. Looks even meaner with the carbon race wheels. Got me a 3rd place overall already in a super sprint triathlon.

It begins with the most simple belief, the one you must have in yourself. That must be translated into results by dedication. The knowledge that dedication, which feeds on belief, can make it so.

Hi Rover,

Sorry for correcting you if you are still working on your bike, but your chain seems to be too loose. You might need to remove 1 or 2 links to prevent your derailler from being horizontal.

Good luck!

Tim,

Yea it looks like it is to loose but its just because I put the wheels on and the chain fell off when I took the picture.
Thanks for the heads up,
GD
