Show us your super light road bike

[ni78ck]

not the lightest at 7.1kgs, but a true race bike

mmm the bike i was going to get orginally.. never down the track.. howis the ride? does it cut the wind as many says?

After riding a malvern star for three years, I feel like I'm cheating riding this bike.
The malvern star was great when I first started riding, but the S5 is in a very different league.
Im relatively light, so I needed help more in the flats than I do on the hills. The S5 is more than what I expected.
I did a TTT yesterday with a pb and it felt some what easy !

^^^ perhaps it's time for a towball/hitch receiver bike carrier??

That's exactly what the insurance company told me...and everyone else
Only problem is that i'll have to install a tow bar to suit the Thule hitch mount carrier.

I'm also designing an early warning system in my driveway. It consists of a sensor light that peers over the car to detect bikes on the roof and a red flood light. Maybe police lights and siren too

Apparently there are iPhone apps to alert you when you get home. I have never used them, just heard about it on the Fredcast.

lol that's ingenious!

You don't need to download an app. There's a Notifications app included on the phone which allows you to set a reminder by time or location.

I'm installing a Retro Reflective Photoelectric Beam over the driveway entrance and connecting it to a red flood light in the garage

Nice livery there Albert ^^^

[schroeds]

Had it for a few weeks now, absolutely love it, its a step change up from my previous ride. Bit under 7kg but havent got accurate scales!

[pawnii]

slam that stem!

[schroeds]

yeah probably will. Just going cautiously - with the integrated seat post can't afford to do something I might regret!

Am I the only one who is picturing schroeds wife with 12 tattoos of her name all over her body?



Hey....if she is as hot as that bike then she can do whatever the hell she wants

I can find Look 21 times on that bike not including the bidon, possibly a world record. Awesome bike by the way schroeds.

Make that 23, I forgot the pedals.

[schroeds]

Ah you see that's where I got you...snuck in some Time pedals!!!

(But I do also wear Look branded socks )

PS thanks for the comments...Photos of the wife's tattoos will NOT be forthcoming

Makes my 63cm super6 look like a giant!... especially the head tube... not only is the head tube huge but they make you run a bloody 1 inch spacer on top of it... even with my back I spend all day in the drops, need to find a -20 degree stem!.

[pawnii]

very very nice
