Thanks! So far enjoying it very much. I love the different positions and narrower width. Brifters take a little getting used to, but I'm basically there. The only thing I think i need to change is the stem; my reach feels a little too far. I'm planning to get a professional fitting and will wait to see what they say before I buy the wrong components.

I already bought a cable cutter; it wasn't that expensive from amazon, and I figured it will pretty much last forever with the frequency I'll be using it.
