Nicely done Marcus.

Like Cal, I too am a bike nut on the side. I spend as much or more on bike upgrades than fishing. But I'm a MTB guy, the road just doesn't get me as excited as it used to, although I do recall some epic road rides. I prefer the solitude of the trails without the 3000lb SUVs pushing me off the road.

Right now I'm working on a dream bike, based on the new and yet to be released Ibis Mojo Carbon frame. Here is a pic of the wheelset... I can't get over how sweet these wheels are... I think they are working on a road set...

The new bike will be entirely black/carbon/annodized red, and will weigh in at 24.5lbs with 5inches of travel front and rear. Oh, can't wait for the frame, it is 3 months late.

Again congrats on the Tri.

Don't fret Cal, that was a prototype, and that blue ring is the shield on the back of a very large high quality Japanese bearing. You wouldn't see it with the cassette mounted. This is the actual wheelset as delivered to me...

Yup, Seven's are incredible beyond words, the craftmanship is unreal. I have a riding buddy that owns 4 Seven's (road, hardtail, singlespeed, cross) so I have inspected them in detail. Pure artwork.
