The seatpost can position the saddle clamp either 7 or 21mm ahead of the seatpost centerline. We will see just how steep that puts the saddle. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

The seat stays join the frame only half way up the seat tube. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

Cadel mounted his bottle cage low on the frame rather than using the standard bosses for aerodynamic reasons, but the TM01 does have two frame bottle mounts, which will be welcome when the frame ends up in triathlon. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

All the usual extra pieces--fork crown, brake, stem--are built into the bike. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

The front brake is built into the fork blades. It appears to be similar to the brake on the Trek Speed Concept. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

Very little adjustment available to the position of the extension in this bar. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

The basebar and stem appears to be a single unit. The stem system does, however, have two more pieces that can be swapped to adjust position. Flat bullhorns and straight extensions for Evans. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

The rear brake is tucked into the underside of the chainstays and the Di2 battery is hidden in the nook at the rear of the seat tube. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

Evans uses a Dura-Ace SRM to keep an eye on his power. Vmax=p2p*subA means maximum velocity=position (or power) to perform * aero drag of rider and bike. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

The downtube merges smoothly with the crown of the fork. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

A simple dial makes horizontal wheel position adjustment easy to allow the frame to fit tires of different widths. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews

The Dura-Ace Di2 wire routes through the seat tube and pops out by the derailleur.

The aerobar attachment system uses a three-part stem replacement piece that creates a smooth junction from the basebar to the fork to the headtube. Photo: Caley Fretz | © VeloNews
