Show Us Your Carbon!!!

[Mr Haematocrit]

That is seriously cool, very impressed, it looks like it has carbon braking surfaces, do ffwd recommend specific pads like zipp do?

 

[Rob3rt]

They come with FFWD pads (the yellow things in the packet in the above image), although these are just swissstop flash pro yellows with an additional FFWD logo printed on the side.

You get a wheel bag, skewer (feels pretty light in hand, not weighed it yet, but it appears to have a hollow axle), a sheet of stickers (mainly for covering the valve hole once inflated, but some extras also) and the brake pads included.

Wow, very smart Rob.
Be nice to see a pic of it on the bike.

You will have to wait on that one, needs a cassette fitting and a tub gluing to it 1st.

Thought I'd re-take some photo's the right way round (rule 26 )
Just spent the last 2 hours cleaning her up and a re-lube ready for a little run out tomorrow

 

[Mr Haematocrit]

Nearly done, just needs bar tape.. I'm going to also move the Di2 battery to inside the seat post. Just want to make sure all the custom shifting buttons work OK before doing that.

This is a better pic it nearly shows how bright the orange is.

That is one of the nicest bikes I have ever seen.
Well jealous!

Rule 26 also says put the vales at 6 o'clock and put the chain in the big ring. Take the pictures again!

 

[Sittingduck]

Big ring & small sprocket is the minimum!

Funny you should say that, my bike is currently in a sorry state, big chainring unusable so have been having to ride around in the 34 with legs a blur, but even so, when I get home, I shift it into the big ring so I don't have to look at it sat there in the sissy ring, lol. Such a ridiculous compulsive thing to do!

 

[fossyant]

2 hours cleaning, and you missed the chain and cassette. Sheesh !

 

[2wd]

Sorry about that
I was also thinking of riding it someday soon
