Today I bought a Giant Rapid 3 flatbar road bike, along with a rack and fenders for it... to haul groceries. Oh, and also some Zipp 404 Carbon Clinchers. wtf have I done??
The zipps are for my BH... not the Giant.

Warranty Replacement.
I was having some shifting problems so I stopped by my LBS to let them take a look at it. They found that the pulley cage spring (if thats what its called) broke on my RD. I didn't buy the RD from my LBS, but Walter (store owner and great guy) sent it off for replacement.

I'm taking the plunge. I can't stand how cycling shorts look, but I get the benefits.. I'll learn to deal with it I suppose.
