      @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.

                                  @setandsetting - a Strava group exists already, although I think it was set up some time ago.

                                  I haven’t been out much lately myself due to a knee issue. 🫤

                                          Just an OCD for steel bikes. I’ve been downsizing from 20ish to about 12 now.

                                            @Denimhead-0 that is a nice collection of bikes. I have to agree there is something nice about hand made steel frames, lugged or fillet brazed.

                                            I have a new incoming frame, hopefully has cleared customs this week and ready to be built when I get home from work in a weeks time. I am a sucker for Nicolai bikes, have had quite a few of them over the years including the Rohloff speedhub based Nucleon frames. When Nicolai announced the new Nucleon 16 I knew I was in trouble. I have owned every Nucleon frame to date.

                                            The new Nucleon 16 is the first production bike to use the Lal Supre Drive system. Looking forward to seeing how this works. I needed to buy two chains due to the longer chain length required for the system.

                                            The rear triangle is black anodized and front triangle is "Arctic Green" which is a colour shifting green / purple powdercoat finish.
