I finally took some non camera-phone pictures today.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/09...9f54a2b04a.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/09...9863f4ded5.jpg This bike has been fantastic so far (2013 7.2fx)! |
It's a decent setup as it is for my purposes. I swapped out the Selle Royal saddle for a WTB Pure V Pro, have snap-on fenders for wet weather, mounted a Cateye computer, and just bought a pair of Crank Brothers Mallet 1 pedals to replace the junk Wellgos.
I've owned a Felt 80, but bought another house to rebuild a couple of years ago that put an end to longer rides. I sold it, and get wistful about it every now and again. I've promised myself a new road bike for my 70th birthday as a goal to completing the house reconstruction. |

Fuji Absolute 3.0. Fairly stock but have some things on order. New pedals/shoes on the way, waiting for my adventure strap to mount my extra tube and CO2, front/rear lights, and a new seat.. Adding a pair of fenders once I sell the others I have that did not fit.
I've also got a pair of riser bars for the end to use when I change out the stock grips. http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/u...818_155729.jpg |

If you adjust it to be level or just slightly nose up the pressure on your hands will go way down. (unless that saddle has about 3/4" of spring travel in the back, then it might level out when you ride) |

Havasu? Parker? Bullhead City? I know that bridge but can not think of where I know it from.

Sweet. I wish there was a place around here that stocks Fuji bikes. My wife picked up a Cambridge III at a junk shop in so. Ontario years back and it was one of my favourite bikes ever.

There's a bike season?

Nice bike, W4ZWA.
One other thing. AFAIK those ergo grips are meant to ´point´slightly above horizontal, towards the rider. At the moment, they´re at about 4 o´clock, as you look at ´em in the photo. Try loosening them off and moving them to about a 2 or half past 2 o´clock position. Of course they maight be perfectly comfy as is, in which case, disregard everything I said. |
