Bought a 2010 FX 7.7
Been a very long time since I rode a bike (15 yrs)
Been doing a lot of research before I bought the FX 7.7 - I know it's an expensive ride to buy as my first bike, but damn... when I saw this bike at the bike shop... I was like... I want it
(when I like something, I get it... bad habit)
Since i'm a newbie... I need some help.
1. Want a comfy seat but still look sleak with this bike. I've read from here that the
Fly Tri Gel Saddle by Terry is nice.
2. I want to get a nice computer. Probably a wireless one since this bike has a slot for it.
Cateye? which model?
3. Shoes/Pedals? I've never rode with clipless pedals before; as a first time user, is it hard? I think I want a combo pedal, because, sometimes I'll ride in areas with a lot of stop signs and lights, so I'd like to stay with a platform for that. But I want the ability to clip in when I can get out on the open road, or paved trails. Any suggestions? Not afraid to pay for quality.
4. 2 bottle cages. I bought the Bontrager Race Lite Cage for my down tube. I want another cage for my seat tube. From what I can tell, I don't think the Bontrager Race Lite Cage will fit on the seat tube with a cage on the down tube. My bike is 22.5 frame. Has anyone tried using 2 bike cages on this bike? What fits?
Any other accessories I need?
Please help out a newbie
Love how this bike looks!
