Nice! I like the black and white striping effect, and the tires add to it nicely. I might add a few minimal zebra stripes to your seatpost, but, other than that, you've got a very cool sled.

Here's my P2 post long-ride last Saturday (breaking all the bike photo rules, no doubt). All that's left is a front 404 and she'll be ready for IM CdA. 59 days and counting...



And, here's my road bike ('13 Tarmac SL4) before I took the aerobars off:

I must admit, I love the color scheme of the new P2! Simple yet elegant.

Nice ride!

The finish of the outside of the Tririg base bar is excellent. The inside of the base bar could have been done better (i.e. some debris etc makes insertion of cables somewhat more cumbersome). Another well known issue is that the glue between the arm cups and the velcro is completely insufficient, so the pads come off easily. I knew this beforehand so I fastened the velcro with superglue and it isn't a problem. I had to use some carbon paste between the base bar and the stem in order to fixate the base bar without excessive torque.
The outside finish on my base bar has a flaw. Not a biggie, but still. How is the finish holding up around the pad stack holes in the base bar? It's known to flake off right on the edge of the holes.

Great idea about the carbon paste. I also had some trouble getting the base bar not to move in the stem.

The bar does not flex much at all, but does flex somewhat more than a aluminium bar. Not really an issue since you should be in your extensions for most of the race and won't be doing any sprinting. There is quite some flex in the tririg extensions ("Gamma") compared to aluminium. In combination with the NP3's sensitiveness to side wind (which is substantial compared to my previous Felt B16) it is sometimes nerve-wracking to meet big trucks/busses coming from the opposite direction. When I see them come I switch to the base bar.
I've also found the NP3 to be sensitive to crosswind. I'm starting to get used to it, and thus be more stabile in crosswinds: good thing, too, since it might blow in Honu. :O

Did you use the SM-EW67-A-E junction box instead of the 5-port? If so where did you hide the splitters?

I can't really see the finish around the pad stack holes since I have my arm cups directly on the base bar with no spacers in-between

Yes, I use the smaller junction boxes. One of them is hidden inside the left Gamma extension, the other inside the right Gamma extension

Love them. They were actually my first upgrade to the bike and they just feel a lot better in the hands.

Sometimes the flaking starts the first time the pads & extensions are assembled to the base bar. Other times it can start if you take apart (to make height or setup adjustments) and reassemble the system.
