Boulder Bicycle Road Sport

[bmeryman]

Just got home from my first outdoor ride of the season aboard this new to me bicycle! (Frameset from gregj). The build is simple and mostly what I had lying around or what was cheap, but I couldn't be happier with how it performed. Being a lighter rider, I appreciate the thin walled, skinny tubing quite a bit here. The geometry is spot on and was plenty comfortable with 30s and latex tubes. I would like to upgrade to newer, lighter, and more performance oriented tires like the P-Zero or GP5k. Any recommendations?

Build as follows:
Frameset: Boulder Bicycle Road Sport
Stem: Salsa (super cool, but too short unfortunately, so will need to swap)
Handlebars: Simworks Co-Miserlou
Seatpost: Velo Orange (the black is a nice match, but it's wicked long and heavy)
Saddle: Selle Italia SLR something
Group: Non-aero Ultegra! 50/34 crank and 11/28 10spd cassette
Wheels: DT 240 hubs laced to Velocity A23s
Tires: Specialized Roubaix 700x30 w/ Vittoria latex tubes

This frame rides so beautifully that I'm looking forward to some tasteful and/or big upgrades as funds allow to bring down the weight a little bit. That being said, the bicycle is certainly not the thing holding me back at this point in the season.

I had a classic side on shot for this location but I can't seem to get it to resize properly. I'll have to follow up with that when I get it figured out.
