Well at least yours come in boxes, the shimano 5800 groupset that I got from Ribble came in plastic bags... which makes me feel kinda dirty...you know having to deal with the under... which I thought I had retired from long ago and severed all ties. Like they say, easy to get in, hard to leave.

And, congratulations on the leap to electrons. It's one of those things no one needs, but once gotten, hard to imagine going back. Campagnolo electric feels so much nicer than shimano electric. I like the familiar feeling they built into the shifting. |

I finally gave up on traditional leather saddles for my touring bike. Brooks Team Pro, Flyer, and Bertoud Aspin all turned into torture devices after a couple of years. Just put on a new Turbomatic, my first newfangled cutout saddle. Hoping for the best, but initial rides feel great.

Bought my Girlfriend.......
Got a new Raleigh fast hybrid to replace a bike I bought her several years ago. Maybe she'll be ready for a drop bar gravel type bike next spring.
Also got my self a Chris King black 1" spacer kit to complete the Kirk 10th anniversary build. Trying to convince myself that I need a new tandem.....😱

That's the one I have been thinking about but would like the timing belt to be on the drive side.

But I won't proceed with either the SRM or the Boras until I know I can dial in the fit & position on this stock frame after riding custom geometries for the last 10 years. That's always the worry 'cos a racebike will get minimum sized right to the limit of hitting the numbers I need but until I put miles on the frame I can't know where the unique fit & position balance point in that frame will be. Getting it wrong, as far as buying the right size frame, can be a very expensive mistake. But I think I know what I'm doing and soon I'll get to find out if I am right. Quote:
