Found a pretty interesting website that links together people's bike (like a blog-based version of this thread). It is moderated - so you need to email your story and your bike - which is a bit annoying - but could potentially have legs.

Hello cybernck,

Here it is, my latest addition, just like Natascha Badmann's ride!

Yes I know my chain is dropped. I like yanking my bike around heading into transition :)

If this is the view coming into T1, you're in trouble :-). If this is the view into T2, you've forgotten your shoes! Nice bike, by the way...

lol, this was t2. My bike was super lonely. Shoe's were on the left at this event (Cincinnati Triathlon).

OK so this begs the question, what place did you come in and what was your bike time. That is a lot of open space to it must be in the top 5-10 depending on your run. Who took the picture.

In full disclosure It was a Sprint (My first race back since crashing in May) 1st. 31:44 (500-600ft of gain and one climb of 11-13%. Even got sent off course for a bit. CR) 3ish minute lead headed into the run, and my dad took it with some bossy Nikon.

Good job and I do like the picture.

With some quick research and going by his bib number he won the sprint overall and had the fastest bike split.

Kudos! And I see your aero helmet gently placed on the ground to the left :-). Great job! The only time I've personally seen this view was when I crashed out early in a half and caught a ride back to transition. Very quiet and a bit eery seeing transition empty...

Thanks guys! I wasn't even sure I was racing the event headed into that week. So being my first event back since a nasty crash was special. That and I work down there, so I was trying not to embarrass myself :)

Badass, sweet bike. Wish china would wake up to these

Super long rear brake cable, is that necessary?

Honestly I can't stand the look of the spec shiv tri version. Ugliest bike around. No offense. Transition was much better in my mind.

Very disappointed that felt has opted or the same look.

Black and black looks cool. But it's getting old. Are we corporate bike riders? Time for some color dudes.

Good eye..rear brake hydraulic tube is way too long. Need to clean that up still. Also, need to cut the steerer/fork tube. Still lovin it though...

I think the shiv is horrible looking, unless you get the UCI legal TT version. That one looks acceptable.

If you really look at the new felt and think it looks anything like the Shiv, I think you should possibly make a trip to the optometrist. It's lines are even and sexy. The Shiv looks so front heavy and ridiculous. I personally think the new "IA" is pure sex!

The Shiv isn't made to look at....its made to ride....and it rides like pure sex.
