Waterford R33

What's wrong with the one in the pic?

It's just a cheapo Isaac one which was thrown in, this beauty deserves better!

Sweet bike!!

I prefer the old EDGE decals to the ENVE stuff, even though they look a bit like they were inspired by Goatse.

You are not the only one. I find them hard to find unfortunately. For me its mostly cause the logo is outlined instead of block and not so much the shape of the logo. Just looks bit more discrete with less white.

There's a reason I painted my ENVE fork

Ooops.

Thanks to ebay this is on it's way. Damn fingers. That's probably as much progress I'll make until next payday!

that should go nicely on your white frame.

Ebay is a fukin dangerous place for my wallet.

Hunter, go to a bicycle shop and test ride a new bike that have 6800, I loved the redesigned shifter body that not only (IMO) more comfortable, the reach is much more adjustable like the SRAM shifter, but they're a personal preference.

if you like how the shifter feel and respond, go for it.

If not, you know what to do.

This ^

Good find on the stem.

Thanks ed, I'll do that. My dad's bike has 6700 but I want to have a feel of the new 6800 levers. Might seal the deal if they feel good.

6700 is completely different to 6800, I never liked how chunky the design is and the limited reach adjustment, I find I have to twist my wrist quite a bit to shift to a bigger cog while I only required a small throw with the Campagnolo shifter.

Did this belong to Beautiful Steve?

Ok, I'll pop into the lbs for a feel around.

Just weighed it,

Waterford R33 Frame
Edge 2.0 Fork
Edge Seatpost
Chris King Headset
Ultegra 6700 BB

1.47kg

Yes it did belong to a guy called Steve, who is beautiful.

Ok, I'll pop into the lbs for a feel around.

Waterford R33 Frame

Are you sure about that weight?

I thought approx:

king 100 gram
bb 100 gram
seatpost 200 gram
fork 300 grams

Puts the frame alone at around 800 grams? Seem like it should weigh a lot more.

Should it weigh more? I have no idea, my first real weight weenie. Weighed it on the kitchen scales so it might be lying. I'll reweigh tomorrow.

Well either way it will be light and nice .)

800 seems crazy light for steel

It was bugging me so I reweighed and it turns out the scales were indeed lying.
It came to 2.345kg which sounds more reasonable! So 1.6kg for the frame.

exactly half as crazy then.
subbed.

Have i seen this bike in one of rapha's videos? Also what size frame is this?

Lovely frame

Have i seen this bike in one of rapha's videos? Also what size frame is this?

Yes, it was the model's own bike. Has now been passed on to hunterlar (spell check wants to change the name to hunter liar which is a bit out of order).

Is there another waterford in rapha peleton?

Oh yeah, if it's the same one as James talking about, it came with a matching fork which IMHO look better.
