Iron Man Upgrade of Scott Plasma 3 TT

Iron Man Upgrade of Scott Plasma 3 TT

Here are some photos of a recently built Scott Plasma 3 TT that we were asked to upgrade to a level that could be used for Iron Man events. This included adding the X-Lab Super Wing bag and bottle holder, X-Lab Torpedo fluid dispenser, an Adamo Podium TT saddle, and a Zipp 808 rear wheel.

If you have an any upgrade requirements then please get in touch using our contact form.

Specialized Allez Upgrade

Here at Jordan Cycles not only do we build bespoke bikes to the requirements of our clients, we also carry out upgrades to existing bikes. So, if you have a bike that feels like it could do with having a refresh ready for the summer, then get in touch. We will fit out your bike with the highest specification parts available within your budget and it will be returned to you looking as if it had just come out of the showroom. To give you an idea, here is an example of one of our upgrades. 

Here is my Specialized Allez that we have upgraded just recently. The only part left on this bike from the stock model was the frame and fork, all other parts were upgraded.

If you're considering getting your bike upgraded then please get in touch using our contact form.

Fizik Arione VS

The Fizik Arione range of saddle is a popular choice here at Jordan Cycles, with Bike Radar having good reason to call it "the best all round saddle there is", as it provides an outstandingly comfortable ride. The Arione VS is our preferred choice of the range as it provides the additional pressure relief required by more experienced riders whilst still maintaining the high levels of comfort expected from the Arione range. With its sleek styling and contrasting use of materials it is one of the most aesthetically appealing saddles on the market.

Shimano Ultegra 6800 Mechanical Groupset

Our most recommended groupset gets reviewed by bike radar.

Jordan cycles has found the Ultegra range of Shimano cycling components to be the most robust and reliable groupset whilst still achieving Dura Ace level performance, and the 6800 range currently installed on two of our builds is better than ever!

Jordan Cycles is Born....

Welcome to the Blog of Jordan Cycles. 

This blog has been created by cycling enthusiasts (and cousins), Roy and Luke Jordan. 

What we enjoy doing most is building bikes, and one thing this blog will do is allow our readers to follow the progress of all of our builds. 

By no means are we experts in bike mechanics however, we feel that experience with building and maintaining our own bikes could be of benefit to our readers so please feel free to ask us any technical queires that you may have you can use our contact form or email us at jordancycles@gmail.com.

From time to time we will also post reviews and generally just give our thoughts on all aspects of all things cycling, from reviews of components & gear, to details on events, shows and sportives.

We hope all of our readers enjoy looking at our photos of super cool bikes and reading our reviews and general blog posts as much as we will creating them!
