Very cool, excited to see that this arrived, and in a wonderful color too. I know the ADHX exists if you want to go wider with tires, but do you feel like Time's max tire size of 28 is accurate?

I look forward to the ride report!

I have 27mm enve tires on Enve 4.5s.. they measure 29mm on the dot. For sure the max size. I would not dare squeeze a 30mm tire in there.

Does the rear through axle thread directly into a threaded carbon dropout ?

Beautiful machine !!

Sweet shorts. What shoes are those? Are you on sand?

Interesting paint window on top tube where you can see the transition between the carbon fiber layup. Does this have Dyneema in the fiber?

Are you running 1X?

howdy friends!

here are a couple'a glamour shots of the ol' (new) Time. Build turned out easy and great - the quality and craftsmanship are some of the nicest I've seen on a modern "production" frame. I hear there is 22 hours of labor that goes into each of these frame sets! Weight as pictured is 17.3 lbs flat.

Haven't gotten to take it for a proper ride yet, but will report as soon as I do. In the meantime, hope that these photos and build notes satiate your curiosities.

Gorgeous bike.

looking rig!

Can't wait to hear about ride feedback.

I find Time frames one of the best riding carbon frames out there, steel like almost.

Enjoy!!

WOW that is really good looking!
