In addition to building the Dragon (Dragon' it home in the project cars area), and gong to get other random cars.  I also build and ride bicycles.

 

I currently have 4 bikes.  An all road bike (Canyon Enduace) a bike that stays on the trainer (2014 Trek Madone Aluminum) ,  Hard Tail 29er (Trek Xcaliber 8) and a full squishy (Trek Fuel EX 8).   So it make perfect sense to build a new bike.

 

This will be my light weight very fast road bike. The Endurace has been doing that but I have finally admited to myself that it is too small.  After I build up this bike I will probably sell the Canyan Endurace.

 

The specs:

 

Ridley Helium Rim Brake Frame and Fork

Carbon Steer tube expander in place of a star nut

Sram Red 11 Speed Wireless

Zipp SL Seat Post (carbon)

Zipp 44mmwide carbon Contour SK SS bars (carbon, shallow drop)

FSA Headset model 44B (very specific to the Helium)

SRAM DUB press fit bottom bracket

Zipp Assembly Paste

Bontrager Aerlous Saddle

Shimano Ultegra SPD SL pedals

SRAM RED 11 speed chain

SRAM Red 11 speed cassette (Titanium) 

Wheels for now will be my Vuelta V1SE Carbon 30mm deep

Tires are Continental GP5000 at 28mm wide

TPU Tubes

FSA SLK bottle cages

 

good times
