    Very cool build. Looks great. I couldn’t stand riding with pista style bars on the street. They put you in a very forward position. After going over the bars once I switched mine up for bullhorns. ��

    I don’t mind them... I’m rarely in the drops, but they help with hills and head winds. Managed 100kms of urban riding in a week and my back wasn’t even upset with me... which was surprising haha

    My issue wasn't the drops - it was the lack of a good hand position on the tops. Hands slid off...and over the bars I went. lol.

    Need new pedals after one somehow coming off this weekend. Looking at the prices in the UK vs. here is incredibly frustrating!

    hey matt i still have the spd pedals that you gave me long time ago if you want them?
    they have been sitting in the garage since I use 2 hole clipless and not 3 hole

    edit: btw i didnt know my pd-m520 pedals are 425g and that pd-r7000 is 265g.. maybe time for me to upgrade my pedals to save some grams instead of buying carbon wheels for now

    But think of how much cooler you will look with carbon wheels!

    I am leaning on the Fulcrum Quattro or Carbonfan, it will cost almost as much as the bike so it will probably be an upgrade for next year
    Unless I get lucky and find a Fulcrum with QR and 6 bolt for a really good price this year.

    Reynolds Sixty Six's. https://www.probikekit.ca/bicycle-wh.../10782553.html
    They have a history though. Had the rear derailleur take out the spokes in a crash in Hawaii. All repaired professionally, but have not run them since.

    Had an interchangeable freehub body that allows you to swap to 10 or 11 spd. Will dbl check that I still have it.
