Looks terrific. Still an odd looking bike but your looks great.

That bike somehow manages to be ugly & sexy at the same time ...

actually, they machined that notch out for the 2012 rings. it appears that they did not modify it for the new 2013 quarq battery holder--in fact, from that shot it appears that the notch is actually not even necessary.

yours is probably the best-looking shiv tri that i've seen. (i'm still partial to the shiv tt, though, but i'm biased. :))

Nice setup. How do the older Zipp shifters work with the new Yaw FD?
I have not started my build yet as I am still waiting for the new SRAM Shifters to come out, hopefully in the next few weeks

I'm pretty sure if it was S-Works, they would have put that on there some where...

Edit - oh yea, that bike is beautiful.

You're saying she's ugly but you still want to take her home, just without your friends knowing? ;-)
