Birdseye view of how that bottle cage bolts straight to the seat.

Small But Significant Details
- Ironman, World Triathlon, and Olympic decals on the frame: Great reminders of the results.

KB’s bike is as clean as I have ever seen it. Looks like he has really taken the time to not only dial in his position, but make sure that the bike is put together perfectly. No rusty bolts or wires hanging out. Everything has a place and it’s super polished.

I say this with the disrespect it sounds like…
That’s so ugly
What is so ugly?
It is so ugly it is slick. I don’t normally like this type of bike but that is pretty good going. Sleek and understated.
Reminds me of every stationary bike I see in the gym. Lol.
haha
Thanks that’s my best work.
was the bike put on diet as well ?
Man…I would’ve 100% agreed with this the first time KB pulled out the Cadex Stationary bike several years ago, but I agree with @SheridanTris …there’s something slick about this matchy matchy b&w set up. @E_DUB did you b&w these photos…or are those red bull bottles grayscale as well??? If so, grab me one!
This is great agreed.
But it’s like polishing a turd, after all the work it’s still a turd.
Hahahahaha…
This is a size Medium bike not a Small.
