Woke up early this AM, maybe 2+- to the sound of cursing in the living room, followed by some loud snorting. Kept a low profile but in the morning found the sportcross had been upgraded in the latest iteration! Looks like Santa_n even repacked the bb and headset but a note said the drop conversions "always take too #^#%# long to finish". The new ultegra bar end 3x8 shift the new 8 cluster/rear wheel so smooth, the suntour hardware loves the new chain, the new aero brakes are snappy, nitto dirt drop keeps it nice and high on 80s touring bars. Overall I am giving the big N a 10 on all the effort and see many kick ass rides ahead., thanks dude
