Show Us Your Carbon!!!

[Mr Haematocrit]

Its a SRAM Red Chain catcher.. The chain is Shimano Dura-Ace with KMC quick link

 

[Carbon]

My Tarmac has now got S-Works Carbon cranks, Carbon Spider and Carbon Ring Gears, Look Titanium and Carbon Keo2 Max... shedding that weight

Whoa, those are some skinny looking chain rings, I hope they're a lot stiffer than they look?

Updated pic, added a bit more carbon in the way of new cranks and a lighter saddle, have been using a fizik saddle for a while, but a guy i know lent me a specialized toupe, did a few miles on it on saturday morning, bought one saturday evening, did 60 miles on it today could of carried on riding all day, would definitely recommend this saddle.

Looking good. There's Centaur FD and RD with red detailing that would go a treat with that finish. Oh and Hope anodized jockey wheels.

And if I wanted to be picky I'd say ditch the saddle bag and cut your steerer
And if I wanted to be really picky, I'd say ditch the valve caps and align your tyres properly.

The chain rings are surprisingly stiff, I'm very impressed with them

Fresh Today - had to flip the stem because they has set it up riser stylee and I switched the stock wheels for my Pro-Lites. It requires a tiny bit of tweaking and am waiting for new bottle cage and pedals. I just took it for a little test ride around the park... seems to run well enough

Time for a slight update, I think. Collected from the LBS this afternoon after finally getting round to organising the fitting of my new chainset. I had 'issues' with the wheels and have just put on some new Planet X Model B 2.0 (aka AL30). Other changes include more practical colour bar tape and hoods

Next on the agenda will be a new rear mech (possibly Force, as I don't think I can stretch to Red), and possibly carbon bars, stem and full carbon seat post. Long term, I have delusions of grandeur and favour ZIPP Firecrest 404's but my Bank Manager is unlikely to share my viewpoint.

Nice bike! I raced someone on one not so long ago, when I say raced I mean I kept up with him in his draft!

I really like the Supersix Evo but my debit card and I are wimps.

Thx - perhaps it was me
I very nearly ordered an Evo frameset but just couldn't justify spending and additional 300 for F&F with no components, over the Supersix. FWIW it rides real nice - test ride one!

Lovely bike.. looks much better with the black bartape and hoods.
Why the change of crankset though?

Just an upgrade that I had planned since the beginning ;-) Shaves approx. 300g off the weight of the bike and adds a little touch of luxury
