#6: Cyclocross and Commuter Bike

This is the bike that I took to Nationals. The frame is a no-name aluminum cross frame, with a carbon fork and aluminum steerer. The bars are Specialized Zertz bars, the pedals are Shimano M520s, and the drivetrain is Ultegra and Dura-Ace. A single 39-tooth chainring with a Salsa Crossing Guard gets the job done.

This is the special race configuration; in its normal life, the bike has a Brooks B17 saddle and DT Swiss RR 1.2 rims laced to Chris King hubs.
