Here's is something to think about....a bike company that spins and weaves it's own carbon fibre. It is like a car company making it's own steel. To tell you that TIME is the most technically advanced bicycle company in the world is simply a statement of fact. The ability to manipulate carbon fibre and determine its best characteristic and use can only be mastered by the manufacturer. You will NEVER get a fork recall like Cervelo had with some manufacturer blunder at a factory in Guangzhou, China. Cervelo jiu shi da bian.
TIME is a company that makes its product from inception of idea to manufacturing completion. It is no surprise that all TIME bikes come with a lifetime warranty. I think it is especially amazing that such a bike comes from a country that is on strike all the time. To think that in the limited hours of a French work week they are entirely dedicated to making a bike. Blessed be thy ULTEAM.

Paolo Bettini, Tom Boonen, Michael Rodgers......they have all won their first World Championships on a TIME. With Campagnolo, no less. This was before their teams, out of financial desperation embraced the "Generalized" demon. If any bike is race proven, it is the ULTEAM. The lightest and stiffest module ever produced. Think about this....what company do you know has the capacity to manufacture a carbon fibre water bottle cage bolt? While you may think that is insignificant, it speaks volumes to me. A company that has complete attention to detail and seeks to perfect every last aspect of the bike. It is TIME.
