Anyone got any info on the new Quintana Roo coming out? I keep seeing ads for it in the tri magazines.

It's the Cd0.1 was released at Interbike which QR claims that the new design yields the lowest drag coefficient ever recorded:



If you do some digging around on the web I'm sure you can find more pics from Interbike.

Now if QR could only figure out a good paint job... My Seduza is sweet to ride, but not so sweet on the eyes...

Here's a solid article on the bike. It's nice QR is actually coming out with an aero frame for once. Instead of their current bikes that simply look aero but are really years behind modern aero bikes.

frame looks a lot like the BMC TT01. They got rid of the front tube and are using a sterring "knuckle".

Really? It's got no flow to it - very abrupt, with little continuity. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess...

All that being said, if one were to mysteriously appear on my doorstep, I wouldn't put it out front to be stolen, if you know what I mean.

 These are bikes not art. Show a bike with the attributes that you listed above. It's sharpe and stands out without being obnoxious. I dig it. My eyes could be messed up?

That is so funny! Did you purposely pick bikes that look almost identical in paint scheme? Maybe I am lacking the "artistic" eye but I would take the QR ride the hell out of it AND possibly look good on it too!

 Agree, to disagree!

I think that anything Italian is going to look good. The only exception in my opinion is the Wilier Cento Crono. There are just too many colors on it.

Well, somehow, the Italians have been able to art to just about everything they make. Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, bikes. They find a way to make functional things drop-dead gorgeous.

I think it is a heck of a lot nicer than the P4 that Cervelo is bringing out though. Always like QR more...
