Thanks Nagrom, size small it is.
road2you - I was more wondering whether to go with the small or medium; large was definitely out of the question. I'm going with the Phantom Black. If they still came in the grey, it'd be a toss-up.

Still adjusting everything. I just got back from another ride and I think the steerer tube is set to be cut for the final time, maybe.

My contribution to this thread. She's about a 1 1/2yr and only has 400 miles. Still dialing it in so the steerer is uncut. Poor thing rarely gets used. From time to time I think about selling her but then I ride her and that nonsense thinking disappears.

By Friday I'll have my Leader 90% done, all that I need is a proper wheelset, but I'm too anxious to wait for a wheelset so I'm "borrowing" from my other bike. I can't wait to finally ride my Leader

I've been doing the same for the last month, stole then off my commuter to test ride it and just been riding it every day since. Luckily, I have enough money to get my wheels done in the next week or two.

yeah hopefully in a month or so I'll have enough for a new wheelset. I just spent what I had saved up to get the essentials for the bike so I can test ride it
