My blue triad SL black ops bike arrived pics to follow when I figure out how to down load them again :0) looks awesome I unpacked took pics and brought to Charlie my LBS owner/mechanic. He is starting it tonight or tommorow morning. Throwing on a Dura ace break up front for now but really need something more aero and black to blend in. Any suggestions? Going with the FSA neo pro crankset and if needed will get the chainrings you guys sent links too.

Sweet bike!! I wanted one to go with my Blue AC1SL road bike but just don't think I could get the fit dialed in. I guess I'll just have to keep the old Kuota.......

Look forward to seeing final pics.

Pink? Maybe. Maybe not. You decide.

Mine apparently arrived today also (UPS guy dropped it off at my father-in-law's front door so I'm hoping it's still there when he gets home). I have a couple questions for you regarding what is included. Specifically, are the brakes, levers & brake cables included? I got the Di2-equipped frame. I thought the brakes & levers were included but I can't recall now. I also plan to replace the front brake with something more aero but have no ideas yet. I'm hoping for nice weather in Houston next week so I can spend some quality time with the new steed (the old rig on the trainer is getting pretty uninspiring right now and there is still snow on the roads here).

Dude, you threw down that challenge in the other thread without telling me about this new ride.
Now I'm second guessing my chances ;) Seriously nice ride.

Just hope as Ken say's I can be fast enough to ride it. It won't be from lack of ""ing though :0).

Problem is if I could manage 24.5 moh average don't think I will be able to run after. Wait I know I won't :0)

Is 23 mph slow enough, on this bike it has to at least look like 24mph :0)

I know nothing about how fast you are; just saying that here at ST everyone is concerned with looking fast (regardless of their fast-ness). Not a bad thing. Looking fast makes you go faster.

Think it will only be going out when the training npbike has a late noticed flat, is getting tuned up, or I want to make sure it is ready for race day. Oh.....and when it looks at me real lonely like.

I don't think there's any reason to worry about that problem.

Dude, it was 24.7 ;) Don't discount how hard that extra .2 mph is. And I couldn't have run after that either...
