rafael-r-011

Since the debuet of Rafael Hoffleit’s custom carbon triathlon bikes at this years  European Handmade Bicycle Exhibition, the r-008, r-009, and now the r-011 (above), have gotten in some serious ride time. Including the 2009 Challenge Barcelona and the 2009 Ironman Frankfort.

The new r-011 has an“integrated hydration and steering system, which allows the use of standard cable shifter systems totally hidden inside the stem and frame.” The “Fluid” hydration system is open at the top and can be refilled while riding. It is also easy removable for cleaning or for UCI races where the extended headtube fairing is not allowed.
