As a long time Campy guy, what is your assessment of Sram? In particular, does the hole under the hoods where your wrap your fingers bug you like it does me?
Lastly, what is your take on those wheels. Do you have the specs for them?
Enjoy the new rig and hope you provide an overall assessment. No doubt you will enjoy the comfy riding position with the higher handlebar like I do on my new Roubaix. Looks like you have bar height even above the saddle.
So far I like it but I only have 10 miles on it. Winter finally hit the day after the bike came in and I have been snowboarding.
The Reynolds wheels will have to wait a bit. I'm currently running my Forumla/Kinlin XR300 combo for a couple of months anyway.
Hole under the hoods? I haven't noticed anything yet that bugged me about them...maybe we default to a different hand position so it isn't something I have or will notice. Now that spring is...springing, as I ride more I will give a more in depth report.
