I shit you not. Plus tires, Ti frame by Seven, no dropper, rigid carbon fork. $8k US. For the dumbest person you know.

There's nothing better than an Orangina after cheating death with Digger.
The Crossfit Bike.
April fools?
Details:
- Straight gauge titanium frame
- Offered in four distinct sizes
- It's sold as a whole bike
- Rims are tubeless
The details are impressive.
Crossfit huh? This bike is for the weak. It should weigh 40lbs and have a 50t chainring.
It has a video!

I'd almost like it if it had a wider bar, didn't say Crossfit on it and was made in a shed. The smell of dentist was strong in that video.
Just lost a whole lot of respect for Seven. Always admired their custom builds in the past, and have a couple of friends who bought their road bikes back in the day. Just feels out of place for them to be jumping on the crossfit bandwagon, but I guess if it means they can sell more bikes then hard to argue.

I know exactly what you mean, or maybe that's just dentist's office. What is that smell?
Nice 70.5deg head angle on that bike.
We should't be too mean with the crossfitters. They are a weird bunch, but they're always looking to lift and carry heavy shit around, in a very intense manner... This is exactly what trailbuilders are often looking for! Perfect symbiotic relationship and everybody wins! :)
Seriously, we have a trail center here where they teamed with the regional crossfit club to do trail maintenance last year. The crossfit people were super happy to carry rocks, dirt, planks, etc to a remote spot lacking such material. That's pretty awesome I think!

What a great idea. Love it
I personally find Cross fitters strange the way they claim the winner of their crossfit world championships is the worlds fittest man/woman. They are like UFC fans.
I personally would give it to the person who wins something like Ironman Hawaii, winner of the tour de france, Olympic decathalon gold medalist etc. Not who can do the most pushups and carry sand bags. I work with a crossfitter, great debates.

I don't get the point of that bike, fully rigid but ENVE with plus tires...
CrossFit HQ is full of idiocy and has been since inception, the leader/founder is a well documented alcoholic egomaniac. CrossFit gyms themselves are often full of awesome people who like to lift heavy and get fit. Some are better than others with technique and some are too cult like. Overall I think CF has been great for the fitness world as it has more people interested in proper strength training, olympic weightlifting etc.
Personally, I think prices are not worth it.
