6 Nm MAX 

I am using a mix of Shimano 9 speed and Campagnolo 10 speed drivetrain components. 

The Benotto handlebar tape is their official "White" color though it may actually look Silver. 

The Michelin tires are a nice touch. Like the frameset, they are also French. 

The black dot is an origin mark (on frame bellow orange flowers) referencing the virtual center of the bottom bracket. 

I was instructed to not cut the steer tube on the loaner TIME. 

I am using the Zero Gravity Ti brakes. 

I am recently retired from professional cycling. My fitness is still good and I was able to push this bike fairly hard without any problems. The more I ride and service TIME bicycles, the more I understand why they are regarded as the best carbon fiber bicycle frames.
