TIME ZXRS Ebene Sub 6

[maverick_1]

@Calnago,
Yup, thanks for the heads-up on the spoke distance.
I believe the spoke issues were mostly on Mk1, I have another set of LW RD Mk2 installed on the Master 55 which runs fine.

@KCookie,
Urgestalt?? Damn...pictures please!

Maverick_1, that's a bit greedy having to LW RDs, lol, what to sell one. !!!
Been thinking about posting my bike for months now, but I know some of you can be quite harsh with your comments, scares me off. Lol. !!!.
Got a great build list of every single component from the LBS, could post that. !!!
Ps. On what auction site is it best to find a LW RD for sale, I know they are quite rare, but would look great with my THMs and Clavicular crank. Cheers.

Minor update...
MCFK stem with LW Fernweg

[Sacke]

This starts to look like one of those builds where the frame is beginning to play a side role. Change the frame, and we would all still marvel.

[maverick_1]

Lol..

Pure pornography!!! Such an incredible build. I've said it before and I'll say it again . . . . that lightweight derailleur is stunning!!!

[KCookie]

Yes I'm still drooling over the LW derailleur, please tell me what auction site to look at. I want one. !!!

Ok, that's nice. How do those wheels handle in a crosswind?

[maverick_1]

@ Geoff,
The wheels are manageable as long as wind speed is below 20kph (i'm only 60kg btw).

Two generations...the RXR Ulteam and the ZXRS..

I'm new to Time's as I just picked up an RXRS ULteam to play around with. Is the ZXRS essentially the updated version of the RXRS without the HT lug?

[maverick_1]

@SLCBrandon,
ZXRS has a "multicoque" front which yields a stiffer front triangle, as well as differences in the DS and NDS chainstays.
In 2014, TIME introduce "aero seatstays" on the ZXRS which streamlines the rear brake caliper closer to the frame.

[DMF]

Are the brake shoe holders mounted upside down, or left shoe holder on right side and vice versa? Might be the camera angle, but it really looks like their curvature is opposite the curvature of the rim, ends pointing upwards?

Spectacular bike btw, just stunning and gorgeous!

[maverick_1]

@DMF,

Are you referring to the below picture?
The AX brake shoes are mounted correctly, however on the Fernweg wheels, the brake shoes are sitting way too close towards the edge of the rims
There's limited adjustment on the AX Orions vs the Fernweg. The Obies are fine though.
Another solution is to opt for anti weightweenie brake calipers, the regular R11 brake calipers

[DMF]

Ahh, so that's what's going on there I suppose you could solve it with some BDop offcenter pad holders, they're available in black as well these days.

[SLCBrandon]

Thanks Maverick. The Time has been really fun so far. I picked that up around the time I got the Colnago EP just to see how the other half live
