Show Us Your Ride (Page 6)

Here's the one I've been putting most of my miles on so lately.

The best part is that this is a frame of my own design, built during a three-day frame building class at Ti Cycles Fabrication in Portland. THE most stable handling bike I've ever ridden. I'll be taking it over the gravel passes out of Leavenworth next weekend in the Leavenworth Gran Fondo. Loving this bike!

Okay, let's try this again...

Alright stop being a rabble-rouser... 

my tri bike actually finally looks like a tri bike

Here's a before and after pic of my rig from this past weekend's EagleMan 70.3... needless to say transition was just a wee bit muddy.

A lot of frame builders have week-long or so classes, and you walk out of them with your own frame, built by you (and the master builder). I learned a TON, and learned a TON about how much more I need to learn. I'll get to making frames soon. I have more ideas to explore, I owe Lisa an all-road frame, and eventually I want to hang out my shingle for customs.

I like your setup We gotta talk about that front tire though :D

Yeah, I know.   

If I was going for a 59:59 40k TT, I'd do it.  But for now it is what it is, training for IM Canada, am I really going to notice a difference with a 19mm tire on the front (and these were cheap)?  At this point I am training to complete, not compete.  It's still fast though, 14/580 bike split at the last 6 mile sprint.

I suppose I agree, although you can change the seat angle with a fit (mine is 79).  External cables just mean it's easier to work on   

I love my PX.  Partly because it's not a bike you see everyone on at a race (I used to ride a litespeed, same story).  But I find it very comfortable, and for the price can't be beat.  I am not that knowledgeable on the technical side, so all I really go on is how it feels to ride.
