  • Which ATAC's are those? These might be lighter but £££ and an older model:

    SuperSix Evo fork would save some weight if it fits the steerer.
    Zonda wheels maybe? Seem a good price for the weight.
    Fizik Cyrano R3 bars are a bit lighter too, but wouldn't bother if you're happy with the Deda shape.

    Nice to enjoy older bikes like this for what they are rather than trying to WW them. My Peugeot 653 weighs 10kg but I love it and it's fast.

  • Weight has been thrown out the window and summer carbon has been purchased. Managed to get a good photo today. This thing is fast:


  • from ww'ism to full hd hhsrb. Happy ending <3

  • I think that's the first time I've ever seen a bike look good with double trispokes.

  • Never really commited to the WW, but glad I found these HEDs. Bike now weighs a hefty 8.10kg but is so much more fun to ride

  • Appreciate it. Question is, do I desticker the rear or get a matching sticker for the front?

  • Matching sticker please!

  • (Literally) but good move on the HEDs they look sick!

  • SuperSix Evo fork would save some weight if it fits the steerer.

    Sorry, can't help myself: even if the Evo fork were to fit the non-tapered headtube you'd save yourself a paltry 20g or so - the Time fork is seriously light. The Evo Hi-mod frameset would have about 3-400g over this frameset.

  • 7 months in the making but sure

  • Time fork has alloy steerer sadly, 525g. A nice full carbon fork and bars would be a good upgrade I reckon

  • Matching sticker I reckon.

  • Fair point, read the whole thread this morning didnt realise the difference in time haha, lovely bike though!

  • Cant seem to find any reasonably priced ones online. Is there a forumer who does custom decals?

  • Just realised the front wheel is actually a Specialised (or at least has had a specialised decal on at some point). Did they use the same mold when they were made? Somehow doesn't feel right to use a HED decal on a specialised wheel now

  • They're essentially the same. The original Specialized trispoke without the visible carbon weave was different, but when Hed bought the rights they didn't change anything apart from a slight hub modification that came quite a bit later.

    No decals imo. And tape your valve holes.

  • Didn't Specialise sell or licence their designs to HED, hence similar designs....

  • Decals add weight ;)

  • ...and aerodynamic drag. Will still get a bunch made incase I change my mind. @roboto 's prices are very reasonable so makes sense to get some

  • Decals from @roboto arrived this morning so I chucked one on to see how it looks. Got 4 black and 4 white made up. White seems a bit loud so I'm gonna go with black for the time being. Heres the front wheel drive side:
