Newly-crowned British Hill Climb National Champion Dan Evans showed us his title-winning machine after conquering the Pea Royd Lane climb in South Yorkshire on Sunday.
Evans' 2013 Cannondale Supersix Evo Dura-Ace Di2 tips the scales at just over 5kg, or 11lbs.
From a distance, Evans' Cannondale doesn't look heavily modified, but there's attention to detail throughout to keep the weight down
