9.5 kilos MetaPhysic
09.2008
As many riders report, the MetaPhysic recumbent is a true climbing machine. One of the aspects that make this possible is its fairly low weight. Because an image in better than thousand words, here is an example of a MetaPhysic weighting 9.5 kilos. Besides using light components, we also lightened a bit some parts like the stem or cushion. Enjoy te view!
Machine's side view
Campagnolo Centaur derailleur with its Carbon fiber bod
Mavic Ksyrium SL wheels with Campagnolo 10 speeds
Carbon hub of front wheel. Fork has carbon legs and steerer.
With Mirage brakes the bike looks very black
50/34 Compact carbon cranks from Campagnolo. Chain is the lightest availabe: KMC X-10 SL
The aesthetics of Campagnolo shifters on the carbon handlebar is very neat. The lack of hand grips saves unnecessary weight.
