Shibboleth.

How far do you have to break-down the bike to fit it into the box ?.
Do stem and bars have to be loosened or removed from the steerer ?.

Wheels, pedals and seat/post off, then slacken headset faceplate. 10 minute job. The wheels clamp into the recesses using QR skewers.

I think there's a video on the website...

How do you find the Rotor cranks and Q rings tlr?
Very tempting

Not turned a pedal on it yet so I couldn't tell you.

One mate has them and reckons they are amazing, another has Q rings on one bike and standard Rotor rings on another and reckons he can't tell the difference.

I'll just have to wait and see.

You can get hard bike cases from some of those German shops fairly cheap.

Rose bikes
Action Sports
Bike discount

Cant remember which do them, probably all three.

Nice bike! Heard good stuff about the DA 9000!
Be careful with airline axess baggage with the hardcases as I know folk get stung.

Ps 55x 11 on the TT bike 🙂

Premier, that's a proper man's gear! No doubt Aracer will be along soon to tell you it's pointless ;o)

And yep, the DA9000 feels amazing, sooooo light! Can't wait to try the brakes, all reports suggest they're a quantum leap in performance...
