Maybe so, this is all for the future anyway.
I made the 6 mile ride today, and the bike hit 37.1 mph! That's not the fastest thing around I'm sure, but it's a lot faster than I've ever been on a bike.
The popping is still present, but it's become subdued and intermittent. That tells me that the bottom bracket is to blame, but my service helped. Not sure if I'm going to wait until it poops out or go ahead and fix it.
Front derailleur needs to be adjusted again, other than that all is well. Shifts nice in the back.
I won't be updating every day since I don't put nearly the mileage on that CigTech did, but I'll drop in every week or so or to report if something breaks.
