If thats your lawn, the weeds seem to have taken over, you really have to do something about that.

I'll try to do better with the photos

The bike is leaning against our club house, agree the grass is too long but it had been raining for a couple of weeks so there is no way they could have mowed it.

My latest TT machine.

Trek speed concept 2.5
hed jet 60/90 with custom decals
stock except for profile T3 aero bars and trusty fizik tri sadle.

all for around 2k as it stands.

super comfy rode it last weekend to a 31 avg in a 180k time trial less than 3 weeks after buying it.

I'm just about to go into a wind tunnel to fine tune my position

That is a lot of bike for 2k! Would have thought the wheel combo alone would be worth that!

complete bike was $1200 on a run out deal of 2011 stock.

had the wheels set from my last TT bike ( paid $750 s/h)
had saddle, peddles and bars in the parts bin.
spares and top tube boxes were stolen from my wife's bike

it's been great so far, way more comfy than the orbea it has replaced.

That Trek looks awesome...

Love the Cervelo

How do you find the Williams rims?

I really like them.

Couldn't stretch to zipps etc and frankly waste of money for my abilities probably

Stiff enough, I'm only 72kg, no dramas in Perths incessant wind and are very smooth at speed.

Also like them as they're a bit different so easier to spot in transition.

Havnt ridden any other full carbon clinchers to compare to but braking is surprisingly strong

I have to ask! What's with the big lump of black filling behind the seat tube and what, is it supposed to do?

You mean the wing? The rest is all frame

Hany indication of what it would weight?
The 2.5 seems good alum for money .... Thinking of getting a new toy to play with

Had for about a month now. Goes pretty well.

Looks sweet. Love the way the top tube flattens these.

Damn thats purdy

My choice of TT-weapon

Here is my Quintana Roo TT Bike, new to me, a recent bargain from a workmate who upgraded to the Shiv TT
Got hold of the Sram wheels brand new from a guy in Adelaide for a steal.
Managed to crack the 40km/hr barrier last Sunday on it in the SWCC Club Champs TT - very happy with my new ride, $1500 well spent
Still need to find a decent TT saddle, and upgrade to a nice set of length adjustable 3T bars with R or S extensions.

Picked up this one yesterday.

It's my new pain cave

Getting ready for the Battle of Boarder in 5 weeks time.

Hey is the front end on that bike (very nice BTW) UCI compliant? I was led to believe that there is a UCI issue with them - and I also believe TT bikes are being checked at this year's BOTB.

Pics didn't work but have you tried any of the Adamo seats? I have the Racing 2 and my gooch is forever thankful

It is legal...The blue forks have the cone on the front, they are the ones that are not UCI legal.

Really great bike, love the stiffness and comfort so much more than my previous one.

My new (to me) pain train.

Hey guys,

Just picked this up and thought you may like to see it (better put your sunnies on).....or not
