      @goosehd it’s a Scott Addict RC 15, 7.6kg, 35mm carbon wheels, Ultegra DI2 12 speed, Favero Assioma power pedals, profile design aero bar clip ons for Triathlon Training.
      Wasn’t yet ready to shell out big money for a full TT bike and since I live close to the alps I wanted a bike that could still climb well. I am not sure about the gearing yet. It came with a 52/36 11-30 setup. For the steep climbs I might have to grind a bit or increase my FTP 😂.

      Only did one 50km ride (a little bit over 30miles) yet. The bike is fast and electronically shifting is so so smooth.

            @Daniel-San nice one, yours? I’ve ridden a Teammachine and a Timemachine, both amazing bikes.
            A store here in Zurich has Basso bikes, I love their frames, things of beauty, but I would love to have an Enve Melee.

              The Scott looks great @Dmart I’ve got an addict rc with mechanical ultegra and I love the frame.
              @Daniel-San what size is the gravel bike? Looks nice?

                had a teammachine SLR01 and a timemachine road 01 one . 👍
                The S-Works is even better 🤙
                Started to build the Kaius , but a few things changed and I want to sell it now.

                  @Daniel-San I can imagine. S-Works Tarmac is a holy grail but that price tag 😱Will be interesting to see the SL8 version.
                  @Nik It‘s really a great bike. I was looking at the foil as well.

                    Any of you guys have experience with Moots bicycles? I always wanted one and even went to a dealer to get measured. It ended up being quite frustrating working with the dealer and ultimately went with a Yeti.

                    I still dream about it and maybe one day will buy/build one.

                      @goosehd I have a Moots Baxter drop bar MTB, great bike. I was lucky to have picked up a standard off the peg frame that was pre owned. I am a fairly normal sized human and don't tend to need custom frame geometries, I can make most standard frames work for me with a correctly sized stem and bar. Therefore I can't really give any meaningful insight into the full blown custom order process with Moots. I would say that a lot of that process will be down to how good the dealer is and how much experience they have with custom fit stuff. Sounds like the dealer you went to ended up being a bit of a carry on. If you are going to be dropping top dollar on a custom Moots then the dealership service / advice needs to be without fault.

                                      @Dmart it's fast as hell. I love it. Can't see myself switching anytime soon. Only thing it doesn't complete dominate at is long climbs of 4-5K+ but it's really rare we race with anything over maybe 2-3K so the added weight of an aero bike is a non-issue. And I'm not pro anyway so bike weight isn't top priority as much as shedding a few extra lbs and adding some watts.

                                      @Nik thanks! Our team worked with a local artist and had Birdworx wrap some helmets for us. They turned out really good.

                                          Been putting miles in mostly on the road bike. I have discovered that I suck at mountain biking and that also the single track near me is mostly too advanced to learn on. Looking for some gravel type trails to take out the mtb. I did a nice one in NJ: the Columbia rail trail. Don’t really need a mtb for it but it’s a cushy ride. Here’s a shot from yesterdays ride on the Empire State Trail.
