That moment when you receive a new stem in the mail and your back spasms because it's too long

Y'know, take it out the package and your eyes pop out of your head, jaw drops to the floor, back does this twitchy spasm thing to remind you of the last time you rode two hours after being hit by a cruciatus curse you earned the night before slamming the stem after reading the rules...
Maybe it's just me

On topic - got a new Red Aeroglide WiFli RD coming in the mail, and a 11-32 cassette to match and a new chain to tie it all together. On to the Palm Springs Tramway!

Size was right, 120mm 26.0 dia. 22.2 insert as described, just a buyer error on my part.

Got my Lezyne multitool yesterday- the carbon/Ti one that costs $99, I forget the model. Sweet! The packaging it came in was even deluxe. It weighs quite a bit less, while doing way more, that the tools I had in my bag. Plus (let's just be geeks here)-- it's carbon! Titanium! It's.... cool! 
When you are pushing the boundaries of cycling, like I'm pushing the boundaries of cycling, a weight reduction in the toolbag shaves precious hundredths of a second.

Wheels mfg derailleur hanger.
Awesome. They really are great bars, very light and stiff. The top bar is wonderful when you need a short break for your hands.

Well it seems like the tires on both sets of wheels are about to be done so decided to try something new vs. my Bontrager's (though I've been very happy with them). For my tubeless wheels trying out the Hutchison Fusion 3 in 23mm, for the November Rail's I ordered some GP 4000s II's in 23mm. I had planned on setting up the Rail's tubeless as well but decided against the expense since I had to order the 2nd set.

DAMN nice looking. I'm going to have to live vicariously, I just told my wife this is the first February in 3 years that I haven't craved a "new" bike.
On topic - got a new Red Aeroglide WiFli RD coming in the mail, and a 11-32 cassette to match and a new chain to tie it all together. On to the Palm Springs Tramway!

Anyway, I got new handlebars, the S-Works Aerofly bars. Heavy, at 265g, but they look fantastic and feel very stiff.
And they went on the frame I purchased on the previous page of this thread. All built it up came to 15.16lbs with the powertap 404 clinchers. Gotta find a place to take 80 grams off one of these days.
Crankset off ebay ended up matching the bike perfectly.
Literally within 5 minutes of me finishing it up, rain started and will continue for the next 3 days. Doh!

Me too...I wasn't craving a new bike at all - but there it was all dusty in the corner of the shop after sitting for 2 years. Good luck with the Tramway. Last time I did it my Garmin said it was 116F.
