Kilo Tt Frame In Colors At Last

Hi

Since so may people have asked
I thought I should post that Kilo TT frames are in
Black, Geen, White, Orange

https://bikeisland.com/cgi-bin/BKTK_S...ls&ProdID=1084




these were ordered before the pending price increases
so they are under $200 for frame and fork

thanks

Are these going to be sold as completes by bikesdirect or bikeisland anytime soon? Will they still have a decal-less option?

If the platinum version is only 50 grams lighter, what is the advantage of that model. (honest question). I don't know a lot about the differences between steel types. I was going to get the TT Pro as a dedicated FG bike instead of swapping out wheelsets,.... but I was thinking it was going to be lighter. 50g is less than you pee before you start your ride.

Tear. I was gonna get the pro too. Now I will probably save up for a much more expensive frame.

Look at those dropouts!

When will the new completes be in? I think I will order one rather than build up since I need new cranks.

correct
we decided that for the extra $$$ - we could put on top level wheels, cranks, etc
and people would like that better

plus now we have the Jury frame coming
so thats two great frame options
[we may also bring the Hour &/or Clockwork framesets]
