OK, here's another Caad7 question.
After racing in rain of biblical proportions yesterday evening I have water in my frame. I can see the drain holes on the seat stays but for the life of me cannot get the water out through them ... and yes I used a little probe to make sure they weren't clogged. Thoughts?
