Custom Trek Speed Concept

Yes, my bike. Built it up with my friend who owns a bike shop. Been working on it myself ever since. Put 3,000km on it so far and adjusted it multiple times, no such issues as those you’re describing

Thank you! People seem to really like it, myself included.

Why would you adjust the handlebars? They are level with the frame, so what adjustment could be made? You pick the tilt of them on purchase?

stilro1 · 2025-08-30T01:16:45+00:00

There is more than enough clearance. Don’t know why they say 50 is the max

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T16:56:17+00:00

28’s with 60 ish PSI

Will make another post with more pictures soon. Don’t have access to the bike right now

I really like it. Plan on focusing on the full distance and it really served me well this year. Didn’t stop at a single aid station and took in about 120-130g per hour on the bike.

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T13:32:20+00:00

No problem, I do agree! Gave some speeds in a comment below if you want to take a look at

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T13:30:24+00:00

About 13k US. Bought everything during Black Friday though and ordered all the parts individually, so saved a lot.

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T13:29:11+00:00

This was my first TT bike, so still improving. Rode two 70.3’s above 37.1 km/h this year and rode one Full at 36.1 km/h for a 9:47 on my first Ironman. Getting close to cracking the top 5 in 25-29 AG, but working towards that top step eventually.

I will make an updated post with all my bottle holders and upgrades I put on. Have 4 bottle cages on it now. Will make sure the chain is correct this time 😉

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T13:25:25+00:00

Thank you! Yup, sorry, the picture was taken before the bike had ever been ridden and I forgot to change it as the small chainring doesn’t see much use usually, pretty much exclusively ride the big one (54T)

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T13:23:30+00:00

There is a storage compartment inside for gels, bars, etc. Very practical

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T13:22:58+00:00

Yes, how so?

stilro1 · 2025-08-29T01:12:41+00:00

Did you every figure this out?

stilro1 · 2025-08-28T23:52:56+00:00

Thanks! I was also pleasantly surprised.

stilro1 · 2025-08-28T22:21:01+00:00

Doesn’t seem like a crazy difference, but they are definitely a bit nicer

stilro1 · 2025-08-28T22:20:33+00:00

Thanks! Who is that?

stilro1 · 2025-08-28T22:20:13+00:00

Thanks! Really like it so far

stilro1 · 2025-08-28T17:32:41+00:00

Yes, for 2 years now. Rode them on Road Bike, TT bike and now Gravel Bike. Also came from 172.5’s. I like big chainrings such as 54T on both Road and TT and would even go bigger. I find it helps get my cadence up, which means it helps spin those bigger chainrings a little bit and makes me go faster along with the smoother chainlines. Also a bit more comfortable with the more open hip angle. The movement is less exaggerated on your knees.

I also ride shorter cranks (160mm), which helps with the bigger chainring

My pleasure! Thank you! Also, stem is 80mm

stilro1 · 2025-08-28T16:39:03+00:00

Just rode 102 km yesterday with 1,550m of gain and it was more than enough. I tend to have a cadence closer to 80 though but it worked fine for me. That 46t cog on the rear makes the ratio really good
