Remember to budget for the new front wheel as well (depending on what you are running right now).
Thanks for the reply dtrain. How do the BB7s do stpooing wise? Better than your od V-brake? I was looking at the BB7 as one of my choices. I am still debating the whole mechanical vs. hydro thing.
I have time sine I can only ride my trainer since I cannot even make my right hand hold a handlebar right now.
Anyone else?
