Hillclimb Bikes

The rear wheel looks like it has track nuts and lots of spokes so i kinda doubt it's SS. Riding a hillclimb SS is pretty weird, none of the benefits of fixed or geared

Pretty sure thats a vanity project from some American - never heard of that bike at a UK HC and you'd expect anyone with a bike that bling to be fairly handy...

Dura Ace brake calipers too, not even EE.

@amey would be proud.

The front is a THM Fibre .. I'm second guessing the rear is a temporary setup for training.

Still begs the question why you wouldnt train on even a normal road bike?

3.39kg. Hideous though.

Is it a hill climb bike or just a fancy fixeh?

That saddle.

Just fancy fixeh. Vanity project from one of the weightweenie guys. Proof of how light you can get a bike with off the peg components when you have absolutely shitloads of money to throw at it. But we dont have a thread for that so this was the next best thing

40g tho

But we dont have a thread for that

Touché, but aren't all proper weight weenie bikes a bit aesthetically challenged?

Nothing like the hillclimb season for a bit of shed science Weight Weenie, the functional bikes not porn not anti porn that get thrashed up hills for 2-5 minutes every weekend in September and October.

Fixed or geared, but if geared there must be at least one impractical modification (e.g. no bar tape, sawn off drops, little ring only) that makes it obviously a hillclimb bike. Reader's wives encouraged, along with weights if possible.

4.48kg

Just made me really want a polished alu bike :-)

He could lose another 25 grams cutting the steerer to the right length.

Did he finish in the top twenty?

Good effort.
