The same model is for sale in my LBS . I got the wheels from it last year ( tubs ) but the bike is just a little bit to big for me :angry:
You will fly on that mate ! Great time to buy as you have all winter to find your position and train with it .

Yeah hopefully, been hitting the turbo nearly every night lately, trying to improve my endurance and overall fitness. Cant wait to get the PX wheels and give it a road test if the weathers good enough. One of our clubs best TT riders has been giving me some tips and help me set it up to suit me, feels ok but a bit more uncomfortable in the nether regions than the road bike, I suppose something with very racey geometry will take a bit of getting used to! I managed an hour last night with a 20 minute block @ 90% in position then a 5 min spin and another 10 minutes @ 90% in position, was a tough session (for me).
How much is the one at your LBS up for?

Yeah you are correct, picked the brains of someone I know who has one and he said the same, he thought the PX wheels would fit, fingers crossed! If they don't they'll be back up for sale again :sad:. Zipp's too much dosh for my tastes anyhow. Going to swap my 53/39 from my road bike as the trinity has a compact -slowly getting it to my liking.

Looks fine as it is. De-stickering is a lot of work for a debatable aesthetic purpose - given that the decals on PX wheels are usually under a layer of clear coat.
