I have heard on the grapevine that George will be borrowing it to "have a go at time trialling" :shock:

Hi Graham,
Its the display unit from the Elite turbo which supplies some semblance of power output for training.
I use the bike on the turbo in order to train in the TT position.
Cheers,
John.

It makes the cranks look a bit too "normal"!

This is what I had in mind:

this is the cycling equivalent of a 40-something balding man getting a 19 year old blond girlfriend.

I am so jealous! Am sitting here at work slack-jawed and slightly nauseous with desire. That is one gorgeous bike!

Mind you, you've let yourself down a bit with the bog-standard black cabling. Nokon cables are way more bling and I believe now come in carbon too....

I've got nokons on my tt bike and they look gorgeous...but they're the shiny blingy silver ones not the carbon as I reckoned the silver would look better with my bike's silver & red decals on black carbon.

Nokon cables are ideal for TT bikes, as the cable bends with TT bars can be a bit tight for normal cables, especially if you get nice and low at the front.
