Hows the bike keeping up so far.. just wanted to know why you had to sell the sram parts. Is it cuz it didn't fit? I'm starting to get worried since I got sram rival group as well for my 715 frame.
@piccalocb I don't believe it's that heavy of a frame. I haven't weighed it yet, but guesstimating, I'd have to say between 19-22 lb loaded up in a full build.
I HAVE WON A COUPLE TRIATHLON WITH THIS FRAME BUT MINE ON THE VERY FRONT HAS A FRONT CURVE TO CUT THE WIND EASIER. HAD A CEVELO TRIATHLON SWAT ALL THE PARTS TO THIS FRAME AN LOOKS WAY BETTER AN PERFORM
@saintdracula1 they're present because the fork's from a different bike and is a little long for that frame. When I get another fork, that'll be fixed.
you still liking the bike? the geometry on these is awful for TT or road riding. Their customer service leaves something to be desired (like rectifying manufacturing defects)
@spamm0man286 I haven't had a bad experience on it yet. Granted, I didn't get any really long-distance rides in yet due to weather, but for short- and mid-distance stuff, the frame's been fine.
remove the brakes, get a new dropbar, get a new grip, and remove the cup holder.

SRAM parts fit fine. I just fell on hard times and had to sell em, haha. It's NT a bad frame...super stiff like aluminum usually is.

The Time-trial frames look solid but is it heavier?

@ociel1988 my frame is a 2008 model---I believe 09+ have that wind cutting bit on the headtube. I'm glad you like your new build!

@78ozz28 Hey there,
What year of Fuji frames are you talking about? The newest ones look way different...the geometry and tubes are nowhere near the same.
