new bike

Hey everyone,

I purchased the bike on friday and have put about 20 miles on it since. Attached is a current photo.

So far, most things have been great! The only exception was the handlebars (WTB mountain road drop). They were uncomfortable and weird feeling. I went to my LBS and purchased a pair of Ritchey WCS bars that were a screamin' deal (I like them much better than the original WTB mountain drops).

Oh yeah, and I noticed a few paint chips. I don't know if my 20 mile excursion caused them, or if they were caused by lack of care in shipping/assembling the bike.

With all that considered, the bike is excellent! The Shimano Tiagra set-up performs great! I was expecting the shifting to be far less smooth.
