I'm a dork, I know.
Stand by, I will post my R600 pics this weekend. Like you I thought the brakes sucked, then my BB crapped. I ended up getting a new 9spd Ultegra group for a great price, including octalink BB 7 cranks and ultegra brakes. Not only does it look dead sexy now that everything matches, but I find BB lots smoother, front shifts much slicker, braking much better, OCP points - almost enough to get me in !!!
9 months down the track, I still think I have the perfect bike. Doesn't stop me looking at others though.
