Cateye Strada cadence computer from REI yesterday, a reward to me for my oustanding annual review.

My latest purchase is a Retul fit. Holy crap, what an amazing difference! I had no idea that 'eyeballing' and/or a traditional fit could be so far off. If you haven't had a Retul fit (or something similar), I would highly recommend it.

Visited Vancouver on the weekend. Stopped at a LBS to look around. I found this orphan frame staring at me saying, "take me home".
It's a Kona ***** Inc. (chromoly steel frame). Now that I have it home, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the orphan. What can I say, "I liked the color"? Yes.
Anyone know where to find a Kona Carbon Disc Race fork?

My wife and I both had GURU DFU dynamic fits done this spring. My bike setup was close to perfect, but my wife is a happy camper now. All of her contact points changed, resulting in a more aggressive riding position, BUT, the result was a much more comfortable ride. Go figure. A happy wife is well worth the money it cost for the fit.

Had a bunch this week:
(2) Ultegra 6701 chains
Defeet Woolie Boolie socks
P.I. shoe covers
MEC Drencher rain gloves
The last 3 items are in response to the winter that will not end. I should have ordered them sooner.
Cheers!

swapped my handlebars today and the bottom of my stem face plate just fell off 
Had a very hilly ride yesterday and I could've had a facial reconstruction if I was unlucky.
this is on its way:

I'm not sure to be honest. I got my bike built July last year and never touched a thing. Maybe over-torqued by the builder? The face plate isn't deep like the stem above. Anyway, I'm still thankful nothing bad happened yesterday. It would've been a disaster.

Yep I am that guy haha.
Amazon is taking care of me though.
I'm quite bummed though, waited all day and all I got were some questionable fixie wheels.
Sorry I couldn't reply to your PM bianchi10, I can't send PMs yet.
