C'est tres jolie. It must be even more stiff on the racing wheels.

I don't know, I used them only once for the championship and I wasn't paying much attention on this. I am racing next Friday and I am sure I won't have the time to monitor the stiffness of the wheels as I am going to focus on pushing down the pedals as hard as I can.

... i'm very satisfied with the ellipse wheelset... it's cheap, stiff and durable... i'm not racing at the velodrome on a regular basis (track is closed during october till end of march here) but they do a wonderful job in little sprints on the street and the velodrome... even professional riders around here are seen with ellipses and not full carbon wheelsets...

Thanks for your insights. I' m surely looking for ellipses. Thx.

This thing looks like its a blast to ride. Super sharp, with that steer tube. I don't ride fixed on the street but would love to get in a velodrome especially on that LOOK. Where is this may I ask?

This is at the Bordeaux' Velodrome (Southwest of France). The bike is super stiff. Plus with the new stem and carbon handlebar, I feel it is stiffer than ever. I will take more pics tonight as I am riding.

It belongs to his team, so I doubt they'd let him leave the 'drome with it.

I already have 4 others bike for street use. Why would I put this track bike on the street ?
Plus, I am a big believer that these carbon fiber super stiff high end bikes only belong to the track, and the one in Bordeaux is smooth, just perfect for the bike.
Plus as Sublime mentioned, the bike belongs to my team and I am not taking it home with me as we have a bike locker at the Velodrome.

Is the ergo stem track compliant?
Posted almost 12 years ago
Well, I have no idea to be honest, but nobody said anything about it not being compliant ...

OH LAWDY! I think C-Record Pista cranks would look more at home on this than the NR ones. Really incredible bike though.
Posted almost 12 years ago
I have some Dura-ace 7710 cranks coming soon.
I might use them on this bike, or not ...
