Profile H2Aero system, holds 40 ounces. Reasonable easy to refill. One needs a crowbar to pull the water jug off the bracket if there is any thing sticky in the drink. I think I must have been one of 10 people that bought it. It is going away this year.

OK, here she is, she's no looker, and certainly not a pedigree, but will have to do for me!!






It's a bit of a Frankenstein to be honest. I have to live with one bike (missus says so!) and a lot of my training rides are offroad/dirt tracks/bridleways etc, so needed something sturdy. With the cyclocross tires on it'll handle most stuff.

Here she is in 'tri' config, some lighter30mm section PlanetX alu wheels, some decent 25mm tyres, a lighter cassette and a couple of other tweaks have nudged the weight down to 9.6kg which isn't horrendous. Some clip on tribars, a ziptied bottle holder, some slightly aero cable routing and a DIY forerunner mount complete the look. :-)

I've made a deal with the wife... once I've done my first Olympic distance I can start building a proper tri bike (probably a chinese frame + Di2)

I'd have to say this is one of the most aesthetically pleasing bikes on this thread

Thank you, I certainly appreciate it.

That frame is a five year old Litespeed Saber. I removed all the decals.

Thank you. Your right, might be a better match. How aero is it and I wonder if it will fit my frame?

I have the same frame and I love it so smooth i'll give up 4 seconds of free aero for 4 hours of comfort. I was looking for a easton fork because I have heard teh Real's had issues

Glad to hear we share frames! I never had the original fork. I custom ordered the bike with the Easton fork only because I didnt like the looks of the reel fork. I think Easton discontinued this fork.

It's the original seat post that came with the Frame. I thought that the American Bicycle group owned both litespeed and QR so it's possible some of their bikes shared parts.

I appreciate this bike, greatly. You're ahead of the curve honestly. Come 'Cross season, just peel off those clip-ons and slap some 34's on it. You do ride 'Cross, right?

Anyway, here's my soon-to-be ride... stoked is an understatement. *yes I'm affiliated with this brand*. Going to throw some deep-dish wheels on it. Probably Planet X's, cannot deny the value of those wheels...

Took awhile... I changed the stem out from the -40 to the -17, I haven't been riding a tri bike enough for that to be comfy right now and the bends in the cables were making shifting miserable.
