Sean, did you give the tight brake a big squeeze on the lever to stretch the cable? Jus' sayin' cuz a shop that leaves 'em too tight is just as likely to not have stretched the cables properly.

Tracy, do you have a cone wrench handy? Yours is even easier to fix than Sean's.

Well Ive ridden the bike twice with hard stops on the last one. But Ill give it a try.

I don't have one but I'm sure VMC does... when I get home I'll have him fix it... I put on my new wheels before I left, not even thinking about that... Ooops! :rolleyes:

So, all things being equal, someone (I'm guessing VMC, here) should check the dish on your wheels. :)

I will, but I'm sure they're fine... they are new and the brakes were adjusted for my old wheels and I was in such a hurry to get on the road he didn't even have time to check the brakes...

So when we climbed OLH, were your brakes rubbing then? If so, you were powering up that hill then!

OK, big guy, now that you have your dream bike, wanna race???

Bring it, baby!! :o

Congratulations on the new ride!

I was curious about the Look 585, so I checked Roadbike Review. (http://tinyurl.com/26vxoj) I don't remember seeing so many strongly positive comments about a bike. Made me think about a new bike for the first time in a long while. At least I may test ride it.

I'm not sure... they might have been.... but no, no credit for any powering :p

It is the only bike with those kinds of reviews. Its an incredible bike, but ya gotta pay for it.:eek:

Cool writeup. :)

So what are you guys saying? I'll have to buy a new bike?

nah.... your bike is sweet!!! :p

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
