This is one bad ass TT rig. It was lust at first sight and I'm looking forward to the stage rehearsal this weekend at Esparto. The guys at Specialized have really been very, very supportive. Sam, Coats, Chris D-man - D creator of many cool things set me up on this proto type and Don Langster (world champ) has been hooking me up left right and center..bikes for the track, Zippy wheels, bearings, helmet, etc. Shit I wish he drank, I'm not sure what to get him for all his help over the past two weeks.(Thanks Don!) Its taken me a while to get my camara out and snap a couple of pics of this stealthy ride.
It's the first TT bike that handles like a road bike, no detail has been missed..SRM cable guide, brakes, and shifter cables are all internally guided. The rear brake is under mounted and from the back this bike seems to look like a blade of grass. Its so comfortable, I've been riding it every day and when I'm in a group I notice that when we start rolling down hill I stop pedaling, everyone else needs to pump the thighs around just to keep up. Am I worthy? I don't know but this thing is one awsome TT ride and I'm having fun.

that's the sexiest ass shot of a bike i've seen in a long time.
ride 'er into the ground!
yum! let's hope you're worthy!!!
Its skinny like me..
and velogirl, I hope so too:)
I don't know about the sexy ass shot. Baby ain't got no back.
Certainly big time bike porn, though.
But trim those computer cables. A nice Brazilian job would up the sexy factor.
holyshit, that looks complicated
Yhea, I'm a jackass with the cables for the srm's I need to clean it up right.
Very nice looking ride. I have to second Dr-N on the cables. If you can't get to it, bring it by my house before you go to worlds and I'll clean it up. Gotta look good representing NCNCA at worlds!
langster don't drink?!
i knew there was something fishy about that guy.
oh yeah, nice bike. like you need it. my guess is you could do a wicked fast TT on a beach cruiser...
Brian, The Coats will be putting the finishing touches on the ride this week. She'll be all cleaned up for Esparto yo.
Beach cruiser, thats a thought.
Aw man, part of my motivation to help was to get to check that thing out in person. :-)
Alan will probably do it up more pro than I ever could. Good luck at Esparto and at Worlds!
Show side! We need to see it show side out!
And you might want to get some black tape on the rear disc instead of the old gray duct tape. Just a suggestion.
