I received my Lynskey Odyssey today! I haven’t seen any information online regarding the 2025 bikes, so I wanted to share my initial impressions. The build quality and welds are very good. Out of the box this size M/L weighs 20.94 pounds (no pedals).
I put a whopping 5 miles on it after getting it together so I can’t comment too much on how it rides. I really like it so far. I was a little concerned that there would be too much flex, but it feels like a good balance between stiffness and compliance. I did some out of the saddle pushes and it surged well. I’m 165 lbs and NOT a watt monster (most recent ftp test put me at 3.25 watts/Kg) so YMMV. I’m traveling next week so won’t get to ride it much, but hoping to get it out on some local trails Easter weekend.

Absolutely love the bike but the spacer shot is an odd choice.
Looks amazing so cool that someone got one Congrats!!
That’s an awesome-looking rig! I have an Elysium being built right now, so not like I needed any more reasons to get excited. Which finish is that? Can’t quite tell, but looks like the brushed?
Also, that is LIGHT! The Elysium is undoubtedly heftier, but here I was thinking my 30-lb Epic was a featherweight. Looking forward to the Ti experience even more now!
Rad I have a 2025 Elysium red xplr on order that was supposed to ship 2 days ago. Stoked to see one or the new ones pop up, hopefully mine ships soon! How close were they to the projected ship date?
