ITALIAN STEEL, il MASSIMO kicking butt in triathlon in Switzerland!

Hey Alex,

Thought I'd share some pictures of me competing in the Lausanne triathlon olympic distance. The triathlon is known for its tough bike route with 600m of positive ascent and steep hills.

The bike was amazing. Its a technical route so steep climbs. And technical downhill with 90 degree turns, hard braking and snaking narrow roads.

This triathlon was in the city of Lausanne in Switzerland in July 2016. I cycled the 40km in 1h29 minutes with 2000 feet of vertical ascent and no drafting allowed (so no pelotons).

I competed in another triathlon in September of 2016 and cycled the 40km in 1h07 minutes. There was less ascent but thats an average of speed of 39 km/hour. So yeah the bike is amazing!

I'm pretty heavy at 80kg so not the fastest uphill but I'm very fast downhill, I like to take risks and I can hold my own on the flats.

Its been 5 years since I bought my bike and still no desire to buy carbon, still kicking butts in races against guys with Sworks $12k bikes.

Although at some point I might have to get a new Monostay... 😬

Take care
Fred Hafner

When drop bars are 'just so 1960's' .....we say go back to the 50's and build a full on 'cafe racer'. This frame was coupled with SS gear so it can be broken down and packed into a small carry bag. Rides like butter.....ready to tour wine country!
