Greetings from Chicago

Hello from Chicago,

Spring is finally here and decided to join the forum to meet fellow cyclists and learn a few technical things. Lucky enough that I get to bike along Lake Michigan/ Lake Shore Drive every day. Rocking a 2006 Felt F4C carbon bike with Zipp 404 Fircrest Speed Weapon Carbon Fiber wheels. Absolutely in love with it. Ready for the first tune up of the year and new Dura Ace brake calipers. Still debating on new shifters as these are getting very worn and not "clicking" anymore.

Glad that you are aboard, maverick83! Pretty nice ride by the way; Dura Ace brakes are nice and depending on what you have on there now, could be a noticeable upgrade. About your shifters: Search the Mechanics forum for threads about degunking brifters, you might not need to replace them, they might just be gunked up. Good luck and I will keep an eye out for any of your posts.
John
