Ended up with a BMC aluminum Road Racer frame, Sram Red crank, 3T fork and stem, Profile design bullhorn handlebars, Ultegra brakes, Mavic deepdish wheelset, Most seat post, and selle italia gel flow seat.(quite a combo). I already want to ride the SS over my two road bikes. just something fun about, SIMPLE! Thanks for all the suggestions, and the serious replys were welcomed.( YOU have to go through about 15 worthless replies in Road biking to get a suggestion that is serious or helpful) I thonk i will try the 46x17 combo, will have to work harder on the climbs, and should give me a little more push on the flats and downhills. Again thanks for the input!!
