The only thing IMO that would put your rig over the top is a SRM crank. Then every area of the bike is full on drool....

SA, the only thing I don't really care for is the aesthetic of the KCNC ring. A black chain would look pretty cool too.
Oops, took a closer look at your post, and it's a chop. I wouldn't get those rings if I were you. |

I hear ya. I saw your other post in the ww thread too. I personally think those aero rings look kinda goofy, and I've wondered about longevity of the carbon teef and how smood the shifting would be. There are some things worth a couple extra grams to me, so I guess I'm not a WW!
|
Yeah, IDK. I like aero rings, just not sure if I like the KCNC logos. I need some new rings though, my gold Extralite small ring annoys me.

One of my favorite bikes on BF. I would go with http://fairwheelbikes.com/fibrelyte-...cd-p-1069.html
The KCNC is just too much |
and if weight isnt a huge issue, the red/black - Far and Near chainrings would look AMAZING on your bike http://fairwheelbikes.com/far-and-ne...cd-p-1066.html

That's funny. It's the same pic from earlier. I did however rotate the bars slightly up. It helps with my healing collar bone.

I am actually considering both of those. The Fibre-lytes just don't seem like a reliable choice, and I am not sure if the red F&N would look good or not. If it matches good then I agree, I think it would look good, but chances are it's probably a different red, and might look dumb then. I wish they made them in all black, and I would be all over it.
another option are the Tune rings...more durable than fiber-lytes (pretty much anything is) http://fairwheelbikes.com/tune-alumi...gs-p-3061.html either way, i absolutely love your bike |

Agree with you on both fronts.

Returned the EC90s, back to C24s.

I have heard many a good things about the C24 Dura-Ace wheelset. I know they are slightly more heavy than its competition, but the hubs are more than supposed to make for it. How do you like them?
|
I scored a great deal on eBay for them, so I can't complain. I'm not sure what wheels you're comparing them to, but the weight difference is probably negligible and the lightweight rims make these feel incredibly light. The hubs are buttery smooth and combined with latex tubes, the ride is incredibly smooth, even over less-than-ideal road surfaces.
Sometimes I worry about what will happen if I total one of the rims, but they've held up well so far. If I had to do it again, I'd probably go for a set of handbuilts on HED C2 rims with nice hubs like the Alchemy ELF/ORC or King R45, but either way, my wheels aren't what's holding me back. |
