I threw the old cables on it and went for a quick easy spin earlier - this thing feels great. The cables are JH Stroh and feel pretty good, need to find out if a bit of friction is due to a worn liner or brake adjustment. It also looks like I could stand to add another link to the chain, it does shift into big-big, but it's labored. The original 130mm stem with some goodies might actually be a better fit for me than this 120 with standard hardware, fingers crossed.

^I redished the rear from 126 to 120 a while back, it turns out the spokes all come out pretty much even once trued up, so maybe this wheelset is closer to original than I thought.

I need to build some everyday wheels...



According to the bathroom scale it weighs in at 20.6 with the pump, 20.2 without.
