FELT ANNOUNCES THE 2009 AR
Half time trial bike and half road bike, the new AR made it's debut when Will Frischkorn spent all day in a breakaway during Stage Three of the Tour de France. Read more about that day here. The AR will come in three versions, The AR1, AR2 and AR4.
 |
 |
The AR1 features Felt's new Aero UHC Nano Modular carbon fiber frame and will come out of the box with Shimano's new 7970 Electric Dura-Ace. Wow.

A better look at the aero-tubing. The entire package will weigh in at 15.2 pounds.

CERVELO DISPLAYS SOME OLYMPIC CARBON (AND A LITTLE TDF CARBON AS WELL)
The first time the S3 was raced was in Beijing and Fabian Cancellara rode it to a bronze medal in the road race and features a brand new, aerodynamic seatstay and chainstay design. Another time trial meets road bike design from the popular Canadian brand.

|
The Cervelo S3 is one of the most beautiful bikes we have seen so far at the show. The Olympic-inspired graphics don't hurt either.

American Kristin Armstrong rode a Cervelo P3, complete with gold-braided cables to victory and a gold medal in Beijing.

|
High up in the rafters sat Carlos Sastre's R3 SL, complete with yellow accents to honor his Tour de France victory.

GOOFY GERMAN PRODUCT OF THE DAY
We are big fans of Marcus Storck and plan to show you some of his bikes on display here at Eurobike, but we almost fell over when, outside the Storck booth, we happened upon a complete line of carbon fiber self-care products. I think that may be taking things a bit far?
 |
When bikes start needing specially formulated care products, it's possible we are heading in the wrong direction. What ever happened to a quick splash from the hose, a brief once-over with a beach towel and off you go?
