Stripping down my beloved Schwinn SSGS flat bar road bike that I just cracked the frame on. SRAM x7, forte alum seatpost with B-17, Ultegra/open pro rear wheel stock junk front that I can't wait to replace but can't justify doing it yet either, Schwalbe 700x32 marathons, unknown stock brake levers and V brakes but they work well, truvativ cranks with performance mtn clipless pedals. I ordered the LHT with the same shamano BB that the built one comes with and a cane creek HS. Stem not sure yet. I have my stock 130 7 deg and a 130 17 deg. Will depend on how everything fits. Bars will either be the performance carbon riser bar with bar ends or a butterfly type bar if I can find a nice wide one. I really like the idea of the butterfly bars but I'm 6'3 210 so things that fit normal sized guys tend to be smallish for me. The risers are 680mm wide with Ergon grips and it's carbon which is nice to suck up some road harshness.

What was it about the built LHT that you didn't like? The one I test road Saturday was really nice. I was sold in the first half mile. Other than the bars and bar end shifters I thought it was a fantastic ride. Smooth and surprisingly agile and resposive, all Deore XT. I guess I just expected it to be a little slugish compared to my more agressive framed Schwinn, but it wasn't at all. If I had the money I'd have bought the built one and had them convert the bars for sure. Come to think of it one other thing I didn't care for was the canti. brakes. Been a while since I road anything but V brakes and the canti's don't compare, at least these didn't.
Still a really nice bike.
