Thanks. Those are the training wheels, btw. I only put on the tubulars for races and the occasional Saturday.

Please disregard the non-matching pedals and bad lighting. I will get better pics soon with the new parts on it.

I think I've posted this photo up before but I guess I'll do it again since I did do some minor additions and changes to the bike...Hopefully, its hot enough to be up here...
Oh, and if you folks out there are using the Garmin 705's as well, mind if I ask you how you mount the wheel magnets on Aero spokes?

I agree. My plan is to get the Rotor crankset, when it becomes a little more available. For now, only CC carries it and the local LBS' don't know much about them.

^^ I agree what's wrong with ultegra?
Here's my baby 2010 Felt AR4. Zipp 303 just went on sale 30% off so I've ordered a pair, but I'll be waiting until spring to use them.

That's nice.
I like the furniture and the ship in the background too.
I don't know how wide those spokes are. Mavic's may work, or if it's really wide, try one meant for Fulcrum/Campagnolo. The Fulcrum Racing Zero and Racing 1 spokes are nearly 1cm wide (I'm exaggerating a bit). The Fulcrum wheelsets normally come with magnets and you may have to find an orphaned magnet. I lucked out and a shop had one laying around to sell me. Mavic wouldn't have worked in my case.

it (gray) doesn't match the color scheme of red, white and black. no koolaid drinker here, campi, whatever. just a black crank would look better. that's what this superficial thread is about...
