PROGRESS UPDATE

The project is now in full swing!  In around two weeks we have come a long way with our vague idea of upgrading Nat’s Cannondale Slice TT to be comparable to a 2015 model Ultegra Di2 spec TT bike.

With some planning and research we had developed a clearer plan of where the upgrade is headed a few days ago.  We were happy with the cost so far and decided we can add in a power meter and do something about the brakes.  The well progressed plan now looks like this:

• Ultegra Di2 Upgrade (Internal wired, parts are on the way)
• Zipp 404 carbon race wheels (Now acquired 2^nd hand)
• Stem, base bar, and TT Pursuit bar upgrades (In progress, more to come)
• Power Meter (In progress more to come)
• Brake calliper upgrade (In progress more to come)
• New brake cables bar tape & general service (Parts are on the way)
• Installation (coming soon)
• Final Bike Fit (Trial fit under way, finalise after all upgrades)

So we now feel that we will end up with something technically equivalent too a mid tier (Ultegra Di2 range) 2015 model TT bike plus Zipp race wheels and power meter and be a few thousand dollars better off than we would with a complete bike upgrade.

So the power meter became is our next priority item, more on that soon.
