Since the Texas MS ride I have had my bike apart for a complete rebuild. I stripped the frame and had it painted at a local body shop. (The last two powder coat jobs failed in <2 years.) I installed a Dura-Ace headset which is so smooth. I also replaced the stem with an aero version. I installed cartridge bearings in the rear wheel to replace the cup and cone bearings that fail every year. It came out very nice.


All done sitting in the sun


New stem


New headset. Steers so smooooth.
