As requested: My Cayne Uno

Hey guys and gals. I just bought a Cayne Uno. I know people were interested in seeing it and hearing what it was like.






Pretty interesting seat stays...


Specs:

Frame: Steel
Front hub: formula track
Rear hub: formula flip-flop
Rims: Alex DC19
Tires: Hutchinson 700x23c
Crankset: truvativ (not sure which one.. the ****ty set that comes stock)
Seatpost: some no name aluminum
Head Set: cane creek
Front brake: Tektro dual pivot
Stem: IP
Saddle: Comes stock with a "custom flite" but I've put my own on


The cog that comes with it is a ****ty stamped cog. The ratio it comes with is 46x18, but I've got a dura ace 16 tooth cog on it. The handle bar tape and flip and chop are my doings... So far it's a great ride for being sub $500. I wasn't looking for anything too fancy, just basically an around town/semi-commuter. There are some things about the frame that I don't like, but they are all cosmetic. I am switching to a Paul crankset, mutant stem and probably a Miche Supertype Seatpost. In the spring I might go for a new wheel set, but I'm not sure. I will also step down a notch with the handlebars, they are a 42cm and that's a bit wide for my lady frame.

Let me know what you think.
