Speed of Light

Back in my days of designing fiber optic products, I worked with a firmware engineer named Min. We share a similar interest in cycling and late last year Min signed up for a new road frame. This project has taken many months to complete and the final results are gorgeous - thanks Min for being patient! Special thanks to Jason Grove (El Camino Fab) for building this beauty to exacting standards. And special thanks to Ryan Bontrager for assembling it overnight for me!

Frame Details:
Columbus Spirit Steel Tubeset
Paragon BB Shell
Breezer Dropouts
Finish by Cycle Fantasy

Build Kit:
Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork w/50mm rake
King headset of course
Reynolds Attack Carbon Clincher Wheelset
SRAM Rival drivetrain/brakes
FSA carbon bar/post
Ritchey 4-axis stem
Fizik saddle/bar tape
Michelin Pro3 tires

As shown 16.25lbs without pedals. Holy sh*t that's steel too!

BC Bike Race Entry Available

My friend, Steve Woo, has a team entry for the BC Bike Race available. Please see his message below:

I'm selling my entry into the BC Bike Race, the 7 day Mtn Bike Stage race (June 28-July 4) in beautiful British Columbia (Victoria - Whistler). This is one of the "Epic" endurance stage races as featured in the April 28th VeloNews. This one is different than the Cape Epic in that is much shorter, however, more technical terrain and single track (fun!). The trails and scenery are supposed to be spectacular. Check out the website.

[LINK: http://www.bcbikerace.com/] www.bcbikerace.com

The entry is $4000 for the 2 person team (includes food and accommodations). The race is sold out and limited to only 200 teams. If you're remotely interested please let me know ASAP.
