Time First (2014)

The Time First road bike offers riders a smooth, high-performance road racing experience without having to take out a second mortgage. This sleek roadster features a lot of the same technology as Time's more expensive models, such as the Resin Transfer Moulding technique, carbon bearing seats, and asymmetrical chainstays. Shimano's workhorse 105 components tackle braking and shifting here, and parts from FSA, Fizik, and Time add peformance and value. The Mavic wheelset is a nice finishing touch, too.
