Completed the SRAM Red swap on my P2 so rode it on a 24 mile recovery ride this morning to break in the cables and give it a good shakedown. It took almost 4 months to piece it all together used, but for $610 bucks, I am pretty pleased with the overall result....

SRAM Red 175 cranks, 54 and 42 TT rings
Red R2C shifters
Red FD and rear derailleur
Force 11-23 cassette
SRAM GXP Team BB.

I also did some wrench time on my R3 and replaced the cartridge upper and lower bearings in my Cane Creek headset. The slight steering wander is gone and ride is really smooth again.

The shadows suck, but the bikes look good.

Looks to be about the right size for the average-height adult male. Are you from the land of giants or something?

I thought the same thing. It could however use some proper road pedals, loose a few spacers. I do like the looks of it however. What wheels are those? Spinergy?

I love my Crank Brothers 3's, so they're proper for me. Cant lose any spacers, thats the way I was fitted. Wheels are debadged 2011 Bontrager Aeolus 5.0's.. :thumb:

Those aren't proper road pedals, and I give it a solid meh. It's not ugly, but it's not the hottest thing in the world either.

shimano components always look ugly on carbon bikes.
The bike needs SRAM Force.
