since mayhem i have mostly been . . . .

so 2 weeks ago i start my 18 days off, i spend god knows how long prepping all my stuff for mayhem, then i go to mayhem, then i return from mayhem, starting monday i had agreed to work for the week in the shop i used to run to cover the shop owner having a holiday. that's also why i took so long getting my pics sorted!! :roll: (see my farsebook link in the mayhem thread)

the contrast of stuff to work on is shown in the pics below!!

the clockwork was almost all original, and the P3 won the "ride across america" (RAAM) in 2008 in the 4 man veteran catagory, it was in to have some work done on it before it was going into a wind tunnel (with the owner) to perfect his aero position. check out the osymetric chain ring! :shock:

:shock: how does that chain ring work :?

 

[jonnyboy666]

well they are like bio pace rings but they work!! the idea is that they get rid of the dead spot in pedalling. this particular ring is the extreme one though, having ridden the bike myself it does feel very strange, i can ride "rotor rings" and bearly notice the difference in pedalling but with these type that are so extreme it feels odd.

this particular set up is attached to SRM power meter cranks aswel, the dura ace converted ones. it's probably a £10,000 bike!! :shock:

just doesn't look right. 10K :shock:

These look even weirder though.

The Clockwork is nice but looks like a 93 not a 91
