This is my new P2C Ultegra, named "The Hammer". I picked it up on Tuesday, but my wife lost my USB cable so I could not post pics until I found it. Nonetheless, here are a few shots name, full, gears, hydrotail (X-lab).

I purchased a P2C a couple weeks ago, and love it!! is that the X-lab wing that's designed specifically for the P2C and P3?

Yes, it is. It is the X-lab Sonic Wing (in black) with two X-lab Gorilla Carbon Cages. I also bought a little bag that is strapped under it to hold a cell phone. I will strap extra tubes, to the back when I get around to it. I have carbon cages on my CAAD 9 that hold water bottles, but not as well as these Gorilla cages. They really hold the bottles.

Also, this version of the Wing has three locations to adjust the angle. I put in the the bottom one, so I can swing my leg over the saddle/hydrotail easier.


That is a beautiful Kitchen Island! I cannot believe your wife lets you store the bike in the kitchen.

Thanks! She does not allow me to store it there. I had just gotten in from a ride, and was dumping out the water bottles. So, I snapped a few pictures. I had to move it after that.

Nice setup. I have the same xlab wing on my bike. What bag is that you have and how did you attach it.

Nice.. looks a lot like mine

Except, those arent the stock brake levers! Did your bike come with those, or did you put them on after? I HATE my stock levers, and have been looking to get some new ones with a spring return.

Where's the porn? All I see is some pics of a bike and various parts thereof. Very nice bike, but as always in these threads - no porn.

I am not sure what kind of bag it is, but I bought it at all-3. It is small. I attached it by running both velcrow straps threw the holes in the Wing. Because I have it angled down it sorta crushes the bag, but I only have it to hold a cell phone. After my bike wreak I will not ride without it.


Also aren't the cranks supposed to be at 6 and 12?

DOH, I couldn't remember. I thought that was the correct combo, but I figured I would hear about it.

The brake levers came with the bike. I believe they are upgrades from the first brake levers offered on the bike. Everything is Vision up front. They are very aero (about 2 mm wide), and are definitely spring loaded.

Even though I have room in the garage, I store my bike in the kitchen (my husband doesn't care) and my kitchen table is not used for eating because it is covered with tools and all my bike gear.  Is that weird? 

Nice bike!!!!!
