"This bike have a lot of advantages to any other TT bikes on the world" seems to have lost a little in translations. I'm pretty sure it would be more accurate to say "This bike yields a lot of advantage to any other TT bike" 🙂

Spent so much on the pinion gearbox and paint/vinyl wrap that they couldn’t afford a base bar?

Why does it look like a bad rendering

Poor cutting out of the bike to change the background in the first picture definitely doesn't help (you can still see the original white background in between the two shifter cables at the cockpit, and also between the rear brake and the frame).

yeah, but also aside from that, the crankset kinda looks like a low-poly model with a cheap carbon texture.

I have a feeling that is because it probably is a bad rendering

It's clearly not though.

More eBay gold!

Whoah.

If only it was fixed. *cough*

Are we really going into the direction of long gravel bikes with tiny stems?

Well yeah... how else are they going to smoothly transition into being full-on mountain bikes over the next decade?

Jesus... a Pinion has got to be one of the most ass-backward choices for a TT bike.

love this, in the wrong place obvs, move it away from anti please.

Is it cheating to use Reddit?

Is it cheating to use Reddit?

Not at all. Name something that can go wrong and it appears to have gone wrong here.

The bottle cage is an abomination, but I kinda get the rest. (Not rilly).
Or?

No.

...but?

Holy fuck this is a new level!

The lock, assuming that's what it is, looks pretty cool, small and easy to carry.

Anyone know what it is?

the shitty cable lock is just the cherry on top of the turd...

That's going to be hella twitchy

That backwards stem?!?

EDIT: It looks like they’ve just loosened the stem and turned it around. The brake cable looks really tight and the lever looks in a odd spot.

This zebra looking motherfucker
