System six I think?
I think I love this bike. Really nice to see a different colour as well.
This is my Niner RLT steel. Not the raciest bike on the forum and definitely not the lightest, but I love this bike. This pic was just before a perfect day of riding the Mammoth Grand Fondo over the weekend.
Looks like a Cannondale SystemSix
Yes it is a systemsix with a custom paint job, he posted it on post number 1994
Yes a Systemsix with custom paint, in semi-midget size (51)
The touch of gold is perfect!
My trusty road ripper for the last couple of years. Custom hand-built aluminum LOW// MK Disc Road by Andrew Low in San Fransico. Full ENVE carbon components with Shimano Ultegra Mechanical. Had his gravel frameset on order for the last 10 months but he recently decided to shut down production for the foreseeable future.
How did you have it painted? Does it affect the frame warranty?
The good folk at Fatcreations did the paintwork, but I’m afraid I don’t know for sure about the warranty as this is second hand.
What an awesome bike!
Is your bike still getting built? A while back I saw on his site that he’s no longer accepting new orders but didn’t see anything about folks who already put in a deposit.
This was done last winter, rode her all summer. If you’re willing to wait Joey will paint your bike
No he sent out an email to everyone with orders. He’s refunding everyone.
Shit I had no clue
Follow-up to my post a few weeks ago. Defy with a few upgrades:
- Hunt wheels and 30mm Schwable’s tubeless
- Carbon Thompson bar
- Ultegra crank
- Stages left side power meter
- Garmin 530
- Jaunty seat angle that needs to be fixed
After 30 years of riding 23mm and 25mm tires pumped up to 90psi, these 30mm tires at 60/50psi are a revalation! Sooo comfy. Bike handles very well and takes corners very confidently. Me likey.
Just need to fix the seat angle and cut the steerer tube down a bit.
My “commuter” bike
Giant Trinity Advance Pro 2
Reynolds Strike wheels
Ultegra / DA / 105 mechanical mix (limited by BB92, will move to larger non-Shimano chainrings so seemed a waste to go for a R8000 crank)
All set for my transition from road racing to masters triathlon and time trialling.
An awesome bike to commute on. For a wee bit I commuted to my old work on my TT bike but I could store that in the office basement which you had to go through one of the offices to access. At my current workplace the bike cage is excellent but I don’t think I’d store anything much more expensive than my T2 Kinesis in it; plus I’ve got to train 60miles before I cycle and a crowded commuter train and TT bars wouldn’t mix
