thats an awesome bike, glad to hear you are doing better, although i never really heard what happened in the first place, but its good to see a fellow rider back on the horse again. i'm somewhat in the same situation, although not nearly as bad. i went down last weekend in a road race, 50mph to the pavement leaves some serious road rash. its true though, when your feeling like ****, and can't do anything, all you think and dream about is riding the bike again. i ended up putting my fixie on a trainer last night and just spinning for a good 45 mins, it was so relaxing to be back in the saddle again. anyways, i've always liked that stem you have, how does it perform? i might try finding one for my new buildup, similar to yours, but IRO, and probably a little lighter on the wallet with the wheelset, and maybe blue or green instead of the pink (nothing against it, it looks awesome).
