Yes, I'm really excited about setting up the CCM. (Once again, Road Fan, thanks for the heads up!)

I haven't received the CCM yet, but I'll bet the Peloton is a nicer bike. I'm wishing it weren't snowing, so I could try these bikes out. I'm taking yet another overhaul class in a few weeks. I think I'll bring the Klein in and see if there will be any problems putting the build on the CCM. I like the 105 system fine, and it has a triple, which goes with the CCM's touring geometry.

If I do that, I'll keep the Peloton intact and give it a try when the snow melts. What the deal is, is that I'm in search of a "fast bike" to replace the Klein, which I don't like, although the fit is good. I liked a lot until I went over 25 miles, and then it would beat me up, so I decided I wanted steel. I like the brifters, now that I know how to adjust them myself. The 105 system needs an overhaul.

I have an arabesque group, which is SO PRETTY, on my SR, and it's a fine bike. Nothing too special, but it has a long cage derailleur, a sports-tourer geometry, and it's a tad on the small size. It was great as my first foray into bike mechanics, but it's not my ideal road bike. Overhaul is done.

The Mondonico is a fantastic bike, but I'm not comfortable with it yet. I'm working on it, but am reserved. If I can get the fit to work, I'll probably have to put a compact crank on it, and it needs an overhaul, too.

My Bridgestone 200 is just a sentimental bike, but I do ride it alot. Overhaul is done.

The Varsity is another sentimental bike, and I doubt that I'll keep it now that I have it. It was worth the two bikes I traded for it, though, because one was garbage-level (which was where I found it) and the other was cute but low end french. I'm trying to stay away from French stuff right now, but it was so cheap ($30 Uo-18 mixte with the pump!) that I couldn't turn it down.

My Atlantis is my only perfect riding bike right now, and it's in Kansas!
