Picked them up today. Quick test on the trainer. When I pedal, a power number appears on my little screen. Good stuff.

Didn't know you can customize them now. I just have 3 JBs and switch them to whatever combo I want. I was told you can even switch the O logo part (need to pry it with a flat head screw driver).
Enjoy them. I love these sunglasses.

I have the same exact frame but use either the Prizm Road or Trail lenses.

Thats what they did to mine. They took 3 different pair and swapped parts around to make them different. Got them from an online vendor

So far I've only been able to use them for about 30 minutes on the trainer just for testing. Installation was really straightforward, took maybe 15 minutes. My Garmin and Zwift picked the signal up quickly and, well, the power numbers seemed reasonable from the small test I did. It transmits power, cadence, and left/right data so I just got rid of my speed/cadence sensor for a cleaner look on the bike and let the GPS take care of the speed measuring. Not sure how accurate the left/right balance is, I'll try some one leg drills or something to test it, but it was showing close to a 50/50 split. They'll get plenty of use this week so I will report back.

I stopped at the LBS to ask a repair question and found the parking lot packed, so I knew it was a BIG SALE weekend.
I've been planing on replacing my helmet and figured i'd wait for a sale... so 30% off was too good to pass up. I asked if everything was on sale and the answer was... yes. I asked does the item need to be in stock and the answer was... no.
Giro Synthe MIPS... should have it in a month or so.

Specialized S Works Power saddle. Very pleased. I was not sure about aesthetics but the shorter nose and the wider cutout make for quite an outstanding saddle. Especially since I ride a lot TT style.
Giant SLR 110mm stem... probably the biggest waste of money ever but I could not deal with anything aluminum on my bike. OCD Snob thing.

Just ordered a San Marco Concor Racing saddle, on sale for $74 at Jenson. Had my eye on it for awhile but didn't want to pay $175. Glad I held out.

Bought an HG50 Tiagra level junior 9 speed cassette with 14t - 25t. Both of my road bikes have 52/42/30t triple cranks and I know I'm too old and lazy to ever work up to a 52t/11t combo or anything close to that. Also, I live in a very flat area of the country so there's no need for downhill gear ratios. If it doesn't work out on one of my road bikes I can try it on a hybrid.

What chainrings did you go for? I got the 50/36, wasn't sure about going for the 52/36 although now I am thinking maybe I should have. Not that I am fast enough to spin out my top gear of course.

Bought a Park CC-3.2. I also have an older CC-3 and a couple of 12" stainless steel rulers. All of these combined will keep me up to date on the chain check-ology.

I also picked up a pair of Ergon GP-1 grips for the hybrids. I've read a lot of positive reviews so I thought I'd give them a try.

Decided to flip and replace my old 2-bolt stem. Went from up 10 degrees to using this one (-7 deg). After two rides, settled into the new fit without issue.

A little personalization for my ride...
Ordered them from Veloink...I've heard some good reviews.

Picked up an FSA Gossamer Wing Compact to go on my Secteur. I also bought some heat shrink to secure the bar tape and am bidding on an FSA stem on ebay.
