On a 12-25 my lowest gear was 39-21 these were long 9 to 15% in upstate NY. The only thing that stopped me from getting off and walking was the hope that I would get home faster if I keep on pushing.

You earned your HTFU badge today.
Welcome to manhood.

Edit:
Today I listed the roadie on CL complete, and planned out the next build. It's gonna be a mountain goat.

You sure make a mean CL ad. I read it all.

No caps, so just a bike made for climbing or Capped, like:

no caps, haha.

haha, thanks. I hope it sells quick enough.

My favorite line was:

You might want to add some sort info on the geo through considering people who deal with such a pricepoint would express interest in knowing that.

The geometry chart is given in the pictures.

Great ad, if it were the 52cm I would be seriously compelled to buy it :thumb:

[grammar-nazi]"I can warm bring you up to speed"[/grammar-nazi] (in the line about the SRAM components, looks like an extra word slipped in there that doesn't make sense).

Thanks on both accounts. When I proof read it, I was gonna fix that and a couple things, but then missed that one when I got around to it.

First I said "warm you up," but that sounded too homoerotic, so I switch to "bring you up to speed," and then I a word.

Holy wall of text haha

Today I wonder where Jaytron.

Tips on how to make the wires look cleaner?

Use less tape? Dont have the tape wrap completely around the downtube, and only have a small piece holding the wire to the frame?

yeah, use packing tape. Little squares under the downtube.

Also, run the cord to the downtube right from the barrel adjuster. Its down too low, and makes a funky line under the headtube.

Why did you wire it to your rear wheel?
I have my wireless one and only put it to my back wheel cause I use my trainer a lot.

I shortened and re-soldered the old wired computer I had and ran the wire through the top cap/star nut/ and out through the steer tube on my gfs bike.

looks really clean actually.

clear tape is a good idea though!:thumb:

It's a cadence sensor.

I hope.

The wire extends down the downtube and splits into two, one for cadence and one for speed. On the driveside chainstay is the speed sensor, and on the non-driveside is a cadence sensor.

go wireless :)
