Hey, heres a pic of me on the bike from a recent half ironman, the photos on a slight angle so my front end looks slightly higher than it is. Even though i’m a fair way forward i dont think power is too much of an issue as i managed to average 39.5km/h
Hi, I sorry not to be abel to give you good advice concerning your position. Nevertheless I want to ask how do you like the handling of your bike. I considered buying a similar frame (martec, sold by pedalforce) and didn´t like the seat angel. Which size do you ride, and how large are you?
thanks Torsten
What is ALL that crap behind your seatpost and saddle? Oh… and take the “Specialized” stickers off your wheels.
Your position… maybe too low and too forward? Hard to tell at that angle and pedalstroke though.
your head could be up a little bit to allow the back of the helmet to cover the hole in the neck area instead of being a bit like a sail. Otherwise, it looks very good, at least from what we can tell from this angle
cool bike, looks like your really hammering. It looks like you do the same thing I tend to do, look down at the wheel. Or are you drinking? On the subject of rear bottles, my opinion would be that you have them down lower, less of an obstruction.
Aside from the white helmet, I don’t see any other major problems. Louis makes a black one, and a yellow one (either one would match your outfit.)
handles ok above 30km/h but pretty awfull below it, was even twitchier when i had the saddle two cm further forward.
i’m on a 53cm frame and am 5’11, i got the smaller frame size i wanted the small head tube and 90 elbow angle
Looks like a 7-11 store behind your seat…is that a BigMac taped back there?
Agreed.
I suspect all that stuff back there negates any of the minimal gains the funky aero frame delivers, so why go here in the first place is the question I would ask.

Because there is no where else on the frame to put water bottles. For a sprint or an olympic definitely remove it, for something longer, I don’t know. User discretion I guess.
