Just did 30 klm's on it today.....took about 1 hour and 10 mins. One thing I love about this bike is the geometry. It aint full on race like the TCR range which has a more aggressive angle on the top bar and head tube. The OCR Competition is a little more forgiving - so it lets me ride for a good hour or 2 and then I can still stand up at the end of the ride. It allows a slightly more upright position and I've also adjusted the "horns" so that I don't feel like I'm leaning too far.

The Michelin Pro Race tyres glide beautifully ( running about 115 - 120 PSi ) and the all carbon frame and fork is very forgiving over bumps.

As the weather gets warmer now - I like to jump on the bike almost every day after work for a quick 10 - 15K thrash before dinner......great for getting rid of that spare tyre that sometimes develops around your waist over winter......
