Looking for a new ride and someone mentioned Cyfac. Heard about them and nothing but good things to say. Also looking at an 06' Time VXS in superb shape (500 miles), but again, no real information on this one and I've got a line on a new Time Edge Pulse. Choice are the hard part.

Anyone care to comment?

    Cyfac are custom made, French and very nice! I would love a Gothica.

    Ibike in the UK used to do them but they went down last year. Not sure where to get from over here now.

    I have a friend who is addicted to them. Very very nice bikes indeed.
  • The guys at lifecycleuk in suffolk now sell cyfac and have a custom absolu hanging up at the moment.

    couldn't wish for a better looking and better riding bike.
    Its my second Cyfac, worth every penny but only allowed out on dry days.

    A close riding buddy has a 4 year old one - lugged carbon with split wishbone stays.

    It's very gorgeous top weave like a matt C59.

    Heavy bike though - its built with 7800 and it weighs a ton, could be the frame.
    When a cyclist has a disagreement with a car; it's not who's right, it's who's left.
  • My frame and forks weigh in just over 1400g, not a flyweight.
    Total weight is just over 17lbs but with relatively heavy wheels.
