Hero Nation. As you know I snapped my front Hyperon Ultra in two during the infamous crash during Ben and I's preparation for the Double Loop. I am putting my rear Hyperon wheel up for sale tomorrow on Ebay and I should get about $500 for it which will pretty much pay for Bernie Eisel's Paris-Roubaix Giant TCR Advanced. I picked it up for $599 which includes shipping. I've never been much of a Giant fan but as you can see from the top photo Bernie is looking to set Big George Hincapie up for a lead-out on the Velodrome. Anyhow I am pretty excited. The bottom picture is Hincapie's machine. Bernies is a bit smaller. Going to build it up with some odds and ends that I have laying around. It will definately be a good conversation piece during our annual chili and whisky party.

Giant or not, that frame is amazing. You've done it again Luke Hero. Chapeau!
Die Mannschaft on the top tube?!! Could not be more NC / Luke Hero. Die Mannschaft Tenschpeederro!
Thanks Todd. It is going to be a fun bike. Glady will let you captain it for Hillsboro Roubaix if you need it. Id like to think it was prepared for P-R and then raced in Hillsboro.
Not sure that he actually rode in P-R, Unless he changed bikes midway because he finished the race on a stand TCR.
Whoa, will it have cantilevers? HELL YES.
Das ist total super.
Hell yes. Black TRP's 3T Seatpost-Bar-Stem. Cantilevers. Chorus 11 Mix. Campy Open Pro's. I call it Bernie.
You're a curious fellow Luke Hero. Perfect. Love
it.
