Kyle Murphy's Cannondale Super Slice disc brake TT bike - Gallery
Three riders from Cylance Cycling use the Cannondale disc machines during Redlands opener
Cylance Cycling tried out the latest in disc brake equipped time trial machines at the Redlands Bicycle Classic earlier this week when bike sponsor Cannondale supplied three riders with disc-equipped Super Slice TT bikes.
Eric Marcotte, Karl Menzies and Kyle Murphy rode the disc-equipped Super Slice bikes, with Murphy, a prodigious climber, spinning a respectable 17th-place finish, 26 seconds off the time of stage winner Serghei Tvetcov (Jelly Belly-Maxxis).
In the gallery above, Cyclingnews takes a closer look at the Super Slice Murphy used in the time trial.
