Radical compact geo. My only question is whether the setback is a bit severe. I believe this sports the new SRAM gruppo and HED disc.

. . .with some definite techno-wizardry. Dropping the TT bars should lead to major weight-savings, and the gear shift levers next to the stem looks like they would be very easy to reach.

I'm mystified by the reflectors, though. Are they having Jan train at night so noone will see the bike yet?

I take it the team announced this new bike yesterday on, uh, April 1? :rolleyes:

Yep, riding big to big on a varsity creates some type of nebulonic anti gravity propulsion. Be rest assured when all the carbon do dads of today are in the trash heap, the varsity will still live.

slow mail delivery. I would have expected receiving this yesterday. You had me.

Were those chrome spoke guards really necessary? Somehow during my 10 speed days I managed to avoid those things. Horrible looking.

I am confused now.... Which bike is it? The one on the foreground or the yellow one in the back?

I believe the yellow is made with some fancier material :p

. . . just like the Swamp Thing, it sits under the muck for years, then rises again to bedevil us.

I hear one was found in King Tut's Tomb . . .
