ACK!?!

 

Well, it is what it is ...

 

Thanks for the clarification.

They tossed in a Record crakset upgrade worth, what? A buck anna half or so? Some other goodies were thrown into the deal and after going over the primary build and completing the assembly...I can say their builder was spot on with my torque specs.

 

Sweet deal on the Record crankset!

Thanks, 20Paris12! The steerer will be cut by May or June.I need more miles to see if the 10 MM spacer under the stem stays or goes.

 

This frame has a head tube that's 10 MM shorter than my last bike. If my old back has any flexibility left in in it, the spacer may go. I usually leave a 5 MM above the stem, so we'll see after some long rides are put on it.

 

So far the fit is comfy and the bike feels like an old friend. It was the fastest setup-adjustment to get 'home' on I can remember.

 

I transfered measurements and so far the only change has been a 10 MM longer stem and to try several wheelsets. It's shown good stiffness, but I'll reserve final judgement until I get into summer conditioning.
