Thinking about the C40, the tires need an upgrade for sure.
Then I have to decide if I'm sticking with those wheels or upgrading those also. Almost wish I had bought the used Campagnolo C.F. tubulars I saw on sale recently at another site.
It's got a Veloce FD on it. I may see if I have a Record one or the like in my stash.
Then it's just deciding if I stick with that Avocet saddle or not. Not much to do on this one.
Oh, and address the drivetrain noise I heard on and off yesterday. Sort of a knocking sound that came and went. Shifting was a bit lazy so I think I just need to tweak the RD. Need to check the rear freehub too though.
Fit wise I am about 1/2 short on the setback and the reach to the bars is off too. Probably ride as is for now and see how it feels.
