Im in the process of building my tcr composite frame, can the GIANT tcr riders here post their pictures. Will post mine soon.

Well I just bought my bike yesterday, still building it up. No handlebar yet, was not in stock and it is being ordered now. It is the 2004 model, blue stripes with silver. Full 10 speed Dura Ace. Selcof CNC92 carbon seatpost. Selle San Marco Aspide saddle. Deda Elementi Newton stem. The handlebar I ordered is Deda Elementi Newton shallow. Pedals are zeros stainsless and bottle cages Tacxk Tao. Wheels are custom made, Mavic open pro ceramic rims, with dt revolution spokes and DT hugi 240 hubs
Hope to see your bike here soon, I am curious what kind of jewel you make of it.

OK, I'll bite...

You guys have beautiful bikes and 10 spd dura ace awesome.
For guys with TCR alluminum post your pictures too.

Wow! How are those new Dura Ace wheels, Ccurry? Those are the first I've seen outside of a magazine shot.

I'll see if I can't find a picture of my TCR...

Well, I haven't done my 'acid test' yet. A fast, technical descent. That's where I usually wish I just had a clunky old 32 spoke Open Pro. Those things just go anywhere ya point 'em. No matter how bad a line you carve. 🙂.
All the high end wheelsets seems just a bit skittish to me by comparison. But that said, I have been jumping hard on these out of the saddle on flats and rollers. No lateral deflection at all that I can feel (150pd rider). Possibly slightly more stable than my Campy Neutrons.
Obviously plenty light, so great climbing wheels. I keep feeling an insatiable urge to bounce up and sprint to the crest of medium climbs where I'd usually pant like a dog, begging for mercy.
Not deep dish, so the wind isn't pushing them around much at all. Not to mention using regular tubes instead of the long valve. And I think I can do simple true's on these. It's always bugged me to have to take a wheel to the shop for a simple side to side. Even if the shop is nice enough to do it on the spot, it's a nuisance when you wanna be on the ride.
