I know it’s really off off topic and it’s not the cross season yet… but does anyone know if the R3 Cross will ever be available to the mortals?
I want one too… you’re not the only one who is waiting.

You’ll get it right when your Giro Advantage shows up!
Hahaha i don’t have that on order. All though i am gonna try the spiuk.
At least Gerard has on his website they don’t know the release date instead of changing it every 3 months.
So come on Gerard lets see that sucker come out to the public.

Do you even race cross?
It’s like MTBing…the fastest guy combined with the lowest priced bike wins, not the first finisher across the line. You’re supposed to ride a piece of shit. If you do actually use a frame over $1000 and deep dished carbon tubular wheels and don’t lap everyone twice, you will get heckled, stoned and feathered.
Did i race tri’s before last year… no… did i still get a P3c yes… Will i race cross when it starts this year… Theres a good possibility
I can go get whatever frame i like i don’t know why this seems to escape people.

I like your approach. You jump in head first and buy the best shit from the moment you enter the sport, whether or not it has a direct impact on performance. Removing equipment as a barrier allows you to focus on your skills/ability…which, in the long run, is just like things were before technology interferred.
Yeah i can never say someone beat me because they are on something better. I just hate buying stuff twice. Sadly i had the wrong size p3c but basically made the same off selling it as the new one cost me. Oh well.
This isn’t the same with some sports but with this especially even a halfway decent tri bike can cost close to 2k. and you’ll never get that 2k back maybe half or so.
I’m definitly not the best biker out there by any means but i was pretty consitant last year at around 22mph for races and this year i’m right around 24. So its not like i should be out there riding a huffy
And besides he with the most toys wins right ![]()

Good to know that the bike industry isn’t in any danger of going out of business.
there was a frame set for sale on weight weenies forum about 4 weeks ago. i think it was one of Jon Pages frames from last year.
