Hmm, I hadn't considered that. The chain might not go through the cage... The shifters only might be the way to go. I like the idea of the carbon fork too, but I'm not sure I'd want an all red bike...

The shifting isn't as precise as my other bike (2013 Cannondale Quick Carbon2). I'd like to upgrade to better components. I don't need/want anything electric.
