s4life, huck*this... these Shamals are going to be a nice surprise. I’ve got several rides on them now and these wheels just go. Of course, the finish is typical Campagnolo which is just superb. You’re definitely getting your money’s worth with these Shamals.

I also picked up my wife’s first road bike, a LIV Avail AR 4, neo mint. It took some time but she finally agreed to start riding a drop bar bike.

Not thrilled with the tires. I’ll probably get different ones today. They feel really slow and heavy, like they are more for bike backing tours than fast morning rides.

nicest looking midnight special on the internets !!!

I actually found new MT900 rotors in 140mm for my new wheels that should, hopefully, be here by the end of the month. Also ordered J&L thru axles for said build.

Took my touring frame to a local guy in his garage for some frame work and have an upcoming bike camping trip for the Swift Campout weekend so I picked up a pair of Widefoot Cargocages and a used Tubus Logo Evo for my gravel bike to perform cargo hauling duty.

Actually purchased the wheels 1 1/2 years ago, however they have been stuck across the border for all that time. I just recently put my hands on them and today I managed to ride them for the first time.

Corima C+ rear and CN front with Vittoria Pista Oro tires, they ride like an instant 15 watts.

Skin grows back micron plan b saddle bag, last one was stolen, and it’s a small fortune to send from AU but scored this last one from my LBS.
