Nice! A word of advice: since it has a carbon steertube, move the stem down the stack so there's one spacer above it. That way, the stem's clamping force isn't on the exposed end of the steertube where it can more easily start a crack. Seen it happen...


As for me... I'd like to switch my road-sport bike from 9sp to 10sp, maybe some Tiagra levers and a 105 cassette & chain. But I'm working about 16 hours a week until business picks up (LBS wrench) so it'll be enough of a challenge to just pay my bills for a couple months here.
