I finally have a black bike!
I’ve put about 20 hours on it so far, and I have to say that it was worth the wait.
I built it up with Ultegra (those who use DA on a TT bike have far too much money, IMHO), RotorCranks and Oval (aluminum) bars.
I have set it up to around 76 degrees (I think). It’s hard to tell since I cut 3 cm off the nose of the saddle to allow a more forward position (while remaining UCI legal) this year. I measure the seat nose as a virtual -3 cm (actual -6 cm) behind the BB at a seat height of 76 cm.
The pads are about 10 cm below the level of the seat, and I may lower them more as the season progresses.
I should note that the ABICI TT frame is slack geometry, but that even with a no setback seatpost, I have experienced no degradation of handling. It is actually the first time I can take my hands off the handlebars in an aerobar setup. This is quite surprising considering the short, 8 cm stem I have on the cockpit. Front-center is a pretty standard 59 cm. So in a “multisport” position, the handling is fine.
The comfort level is impressive, although the longest I have ridden it is 2.5 hrs. On my previous TT bike (I won’t name them, as they have a letiginous (spelling?) tendency), I would have been smarting (degenerative disks), but I experienced no discomfort at all. Definitely a great olympic to half-ironman-distance bike.
I’m experimenting with a pseudo Ulrich hand position, which feels powerful. We’ll see this Saturday at the first club TT if the extra power outweighs the lesser aerodynamics.
BTW, Rotors feel great. I’m really quite surprised that triathletes have not embraced them more readily, since they tend to be more open to tech advances than roadies. Maybe the pendulum has swung the other way…
OK, let me have it. Tell me why rotors suck and slack geometry is wrong and black paint has a higher Cx, and roadies are snobs (well, I have to agree with you there… 
)
