Okay…i sold my TT bike cos i wasnt using it anymore, some wheels and parts and with the money bought some trick stuff to have the one bike…scroll down for a Sousa approved image of the bike…

Storck CD1.0 frame
THM-Carbones Scapula SP Tuned forks
Zero Gravity 07 brakes
Wheels - LEW Racing rims / Tune hubs / spokes
Schmolke TLO seatpost
THM-Carbones Clavicula crankset
Look pedals
Tune wheel locks
Syntace Carbon Racelite handlebars
Vittoria CS Triathlon tubulars
Stronglight CT2 cassette - 13/27
Tune bottle cages
Saddleco Flow Ti saddle
Ritchey WCS aluminium stem
Rotor Q-Rings 53/40

It weighs 5.9135 kg…and i have a Ultegra front derailluer on, Dura Ace levers, Dura Ace rear derailleur…so more weight can be lost…the photos are crap but you get the idea…

I would think a graphic designer would understand the value of presenting things in an appealing way…

3

i was hoping nobody would comment on the crap presentation i have made here!!! rubbish fots, rubbish presentation…LOL

4

I could give some ideas to improve the pics, but for that I would need to go back and look at them again… I’d rather not :wink:

5

hey at least the furniture and stuff looks better than everyone else’s…like the house has furniture which is more than i can say for loads of people here…heh heh hhe

gee-zus!

that’s so close to my dream road bike (Fascenario 0.7) & build it ain’t funny.

well done sir.

Just for you my Portuguese friend…i went out yesterday and took my little digital camera…it was getting dark but i saw a little spot that looked nice and snapped this one as a portrait of my bike…i hope this redeems me as a professional at least a bit in your eyes…

an SLR carbon saddle and you could shave some more.

I would say something about the chain being on the little ring, but with a 13-27, I guess I dont have to. This is Slowtwitch after all.

12

Dammit!!! You made me ruin another pair of pants!!!

I gotta lose weight and start riding with anger again so I could ride such a beast!!!

13

Ok, you are a graphic designer and have marble steps going to your garage?

Nice ride, all kidding aside.

It’s a very nice looking bike and well set up.

If you want to achieve true weight-weeniehood, go with the Schmolke TLO handlebars (-50 grams); AX-lightness endurance saddle (-200 grams); Syntace F99 stem (-40grams); Campy shifters with shimergo adaptor (-100 grams); tuned speedplay pedals (100 grams). That will get you below 5.5kg easy.

You can’t find an american garage door over there in Gibraltar? :wink:

Anyway, kick-ass build, a nice white background, a view from the drive-side and everyone would drooling over it. I am even willing to forgive you for using Shimano parts…

16

Ummm… your seats to high and those tubulars will give way to much rolling resistance :wink:

Seriously… very nice. Enjoy it!

I think the rearwheel could be closer to the seat tube and the bike has to much color.

Very nice setup indeed. Now if only Markus Storck wasn’t such an arrogant and not so nice person.

very nice built. maybe some fizik bar tape could improve the look. you should post this bike on the fairwheelbike.com forum, those guys love stuff like this.

Good job on the build.
