Do you think it's the same for the opposite?

Does Cerveloman have the updated Garmin-Cervelo kit yet? Inquiring minds want to know.

After much handwringing, and final stabilization of health status in the RUOkie household, we have decided to start to build a new house. We have been vacillating between major remodel or moving. When costs were factored in for the remodel, we decided to start to look. Just found a new development and the price is right for the lots. The current homes are nice and our style. Now to start the crazyness.

She's great. Really no problems and is feeling better than she has in over a year. Perfect health except for a seizure disorder. We've been so focused on that stuff that we have put our home improvement plans on the back burner. Since new years, we've been getting back to normal.

and thanks for asking guys!

My bike came.. just came back from a 2 hour ride. The rims need to be trued but otherwise it's way faster than my old bike. Shoop da woop.

Wheels are here!


On the bike:


Skewers seem almost the same as the soul ones:


The wheels were so nice I felt the need to clean the cassette I planned on putting on it.


I am trying to replace the freehub on the soul wheels (it was pretty chewed up), but I can't figure out how to get the freehub off of the axel short of a pipe wrench. (taking it this far apart has been very enlightening though especially how little holds the pawls on) How does it come off?
