We're on our way back from Rouleur and, despite the lack of beer, we had a great time looking at some of the best cycling tech available. Here are some of our highlights.
BMC's Masterpiece is a stunning example of quality control. The frame comes out of the mould like this and it is raw perfection.
The logos are subtle and we learnt that only about 80 have been sold worldwide since the bike's launch roughly a year ago.
Lightweight wheels finish a no-expense-spared build.
This Hope track bike would be the ultimate hipster fixie. It's also very fast.
Gianni Moscon's drivetrain is my idea of a nightmare.
Make your own jokes about it being as dirty as his mouth...
His teammate Carapaz, meanwhile, has been busy with the polish.
Look at that paint fade too! Tidy.
Ceramic Speed has its OSPW systems ready to go if you've got your hands on the new Dura-Ace and you feel the need to spend more money.
Ribble's Ultra was on display in this stunning British Racing Green. Sparkles are optional.
One of the most interesting race bikes that we've seen this year is Lizzie Deignan's Roubaix-winning Trek.
The bike features a 1X SRAM Red eTap AXS groupset. The chain keeper is a just-in-case measure.
SRAM Blips sit on either side of the stem to make sifting easier on the cobbles.
Race notes tidily printed.
And big tyres for a floaty ride.
This Specialized S-Works Crux featured a beautiful brushed aluminium-effect finish.
And we'll finish with this POC TT lid with the brilliant Palace design. It's quackers.
Ok, someone get us a beer.
I've had a look at this location. The bus lane also contains a marked cycle lane....
I agree that cyclists have to take a strong position. Especially when on faster roads....
UK Police probably don't tolerate stepping out. There are not enough of them on the streets to be around. That's why anything with a camera is...
It's on the Mavic website, 120kg inclusive of bike.
The 'no legal requirement' bit is inconsequential when it comes to contributory negligence; as bicycle specific helmets are readily available and...
Clearly the randos tweeting have no clue cycling is a team sport.
Spin an aluminum wheel with your finger. Now spin a carbon wheel with your finger. The difference in inertia 'weight' your finger must overcome...
I own the Grand tour jacket and love it. Might get this for spring/summer. Thanks for the heads up road.cc
We should have a sweep on which PBU Tenpin is.
No idea. He just seems to be a rich, selfish, violent twat.
