Shimano 105 rear derailer and cassette
Shimano 105 crank and wellgo pedals. the crank looks so bare compared to other cranks.
trek's carbon fork with wireless computer inserts. i am not going to be using a wireless computer tho. wired for me.
1st impression after a 5 minute ride:
- holy crap this thing is light. i feel like im riding a plastic bike
- drivetrain = on point. no shifts missed, you switch up or down and it goes without hesitation
- it's fasssssssssssssssssst. again, i was in jeans riding this and from some of the take offs, this thing really wants to go
- came with a annoying reflector on the handle bars that i removed
- the white looks sooooo much hotter in person. my girl said she likes this bike better than my old one 'this one looks clean'. the white is soooo smooth.
- only annoyance, as some have mentioned, is that the shifters are always touching your fingers. i'll post pics of what i mean. this is annoying as all hell, even from my 5 minute ride, so im def taking it back to the dealer to have the shifters placed a few cm away from the brakes... maybe an inch away or so. still enough to get to them easily while staying out of the way.
- altho i only spent a few seconds on the saddle, i am surprised it did not feel like a mideval torture device like the stocker on my trek 7.2... again, this is only based on a 5 minute ride.
- brakes a little noisy, but that's bc they're not broken in. they will be by this weekend tho :-D
again - thanks to everyone that helped me with my decision!
