Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

You can hope Jen digs "bad boys", maybe your time in the penitentiary will get you somewhere.

I'm offended by that remark. I don't consider myself a visitor . . . I'm a regular. I have 93 posts in this thread, after all. That's regular isn't it?

Sure will. The rest will be ultegra (mostly 6700, cassette 6500) and a rival or force crank. Probably rival.

Stick with dura ace cables/housing all around. $30 for a set (brake + der) from online retailers.
