Time trial bikes

172.5 cranks

175 as shown, new cranks are 177.5 so I've lowered my gain ratio a touch

I use 53/15 for the more sporting courses; any London West testers will probably know Hawthorn Hill, and 93" is fine for that.

Nice, why did you get rid?

^
ahh i see, good stuff!
any pictures of you in action?

NOT. A. EUPH.

Nothing recent, loads of old pics all over the forum if you go looking. Also a few on the MDCC site, IIRC.

I'm planning to do a hilly 8 mile (circuit) tomorrow and I'm going to try it fixed (48x16) as a bit of an experiment. I've not ridden this circuit before, but will do again this summer.

The has deep road drop bars and hoods. My question is... should I slam my stem (which would lower the front about 35mm) or stick with a position I'm used to and spend most of it riding in the (deepish) drops?

Found ya haha! Loads of serious looking children in TT getups as well!

^^ you need to be comfy so you can get the power down, so I'd of thought doing the course in the drops would be better than uncomfy/having to come out of the drops?

Just guessing by what was put on the previous page

Mad props towards Leontien.

Can someone explain the rear brake positioning on these? Lots of TT bikes have it, lots don't...

Keepin' the cable inside the diamond?

And that makes you superfast and aero-like-a-dolphin because...

Ok thanks. Sounds sensible to me.

Mine's Red, black, white faded and will be fixed for the time being, with a slightly different set up.

I took it that the Telfer in the photo was yours.

Time for another re.......but well worth another look.

I don't understand many aspects of that bike - rear triangle, BB height...

Lower BB, lower overall height, moar arro?
