While we were in Kona we had the opportunity to snap a few pics of Ben Hoffman's Zipp, SRAM red equipped Specialized S-Works Shiv. He though was there to train and not to race, plus he had assisted us there with an interview.

We would all surely like to hang out in such a beautiful location.

The Fuelcell on the S-Works Shiv appears to be ready for a race or a training session.

Specialized S-Works cranks with a 54 chain ring and a Quarq power meter.

The Zipp disc is fast but also a sign that Ben Hoffman is not racing here. Up front he rides a Zipp Firecrest 808.

A Specialized Romin EVO Pro saddle.

The view from the front at the cockpit of Ben Hoffman.

Zipp Vuka base bars.

A simple attachment for the hydration setup up front.

We are quite certain that Ben Hoffman isn't training or racing with this umbrella, but he might enjoy frou frou drinks.
