Show Us Your Carbon!!!

[Nigel182]

Please don't get me wrong, I wasn't casting aspersions

Just that, personally, I've managed on all the hills that I've ridden (on the other Ribble) have been do-able with that gearing

Nope didn't think that each to our own what works for one doesn't for another

My Cube Argee Gtc Sl 2015, this was the day after i picked it up on Holiday in the lake's.

 

[Breedon]

just finished building my Viner Mitus on friday and had a shakedown ride and final set up over the weekend . really pleased with how its turned out, fits me better than my pro carbon did as i sized down to a small when i ordered the frame and its definatly stiffer with more aggresive geometry which was what i was after.

it wieghs in at 7.6kgs with pedals ,cages and garmin mount. i cannot wait to get some miles in , love the new bike feeling.now i just need to sell the medium planet x pro carbon frame i stripped to build this and large boardman team carbon frame i won from halfords when it arrives

spec

Viner Mitus 0.6 small frame
Full Sram Rival groupset (currently has 11-32 wifli cassette going to swap to 11-26 very soon)
Mavic Ksyrium Elite S wheels
Deda Electa Carbon bars
Deda superzero carbon seatpost
Deda Zero2 110mm stem
Prologo CPC Naga 134mm saddle
Mitchelin pro4 endurance tyres

Im building up that very frame, same colour as well gets the head set fitted tomorrow so I'll be able to start it, mine will have red bar tape.very light frame

@ianrauk will like this 7.6kg of hydraulic braked carbon goodness that hasn't been fitted for me yet

That blue/black 'disc-ed' Planet X' is niice

I was bought a Gran-Fondo a couple of weeks ago;
Ultegra 11-speed
Ultegra wheels (Schwalbe 'ONE' tyres, '23')
Ritchey WCS stem, bars, seat-pin, tape & bottle-cages(!?)
'Flite' saddle that was new to my Dyna-Tech 755Ti, back in 1994 (& best saddle I've ever had)

Oh, & spot the 'Sad-Git' feature, given the Italian flag

I must admit, I was considering a Sportive 365' (frame/forks, & bare essentials), to usurp my '7005 Winter' (transferring componentry to the '365') to partner up with my Gran Fondo

However, the newly announced CR3 seems good!!! (if a little visually dull)
I'd make an excellent winter bike/commuter, then (as used to happen, on the road, years ago) take off the mudguards, change the tyres & CX race it!!

Not really as your seeing some of the other fork through the spokes due to the angle of the photo
