no time like the present.

Any seat post advice?

I definitely can't take on another project right now.

I think it's just trendy to use Thomson stuff on Kageros.

As for myself - unless I'm using a Brooks saddle, I generally don't like setback posts because of lower back issues.

Do you use the 722 in the snow?

I usually ride my Raleigh beater.

Any advice on grease for bb threads, etc? I thought I remembered you answering it at some point but couldn't find it.

Cool.

Do you happen to know the stand over for the Kagero?

Yeah this was it, at least mostly, much much better if I can get close to slamming the wheel.

I've never even measured mine.

I typically use Finish Line ceramic grease but any lithium or marine grease will work just as well.

Cool, got a Home Depot gift card for Christmas, I'll go buy some grease with it. Thanks.

Is this avatar bad?

I liked you're last avatar better

Back to that one.

In terms of components, where do you think I should start to drop weight on the CAAD10? (aside from wheels...)

Does KMC make a 710 style chain in 3/32"

a 1/8th chain is compatible with a 3/32 chainring and cog right? Not the other way around?

Correct

The 710-SL comes in 3/32". We have some on order that should be arriving by this Wednesday.

I have some Zefal plastic toe clips that still are not large enough in the toe box. Local bike shop said that just by riding, it will enlarge the toe box. I did not think resin would stretch. Does that sound correct?

The shop said that metal would be worse for the toe box. But I have seen people talking about bending the metal clips. I would think that if you can bend them, then the MKS deep clips would be a good candidate for modification if I need a bigger box. Does that sound correct?

Thanx

i run a 3/32" drive train & am pretty sure that it is the 810 that comes in 3/32

if you are going to carry kmc k810sl at a decent price you can consider 1 sold...

Brain fart. The 3/32" version is called the 810-SL.

Scrod,

The Kagero is touted as a limited edition, limited stock deal. I was curious if you knew what the productions numbers are roughly?

I'm not sure but I could find out. For some reason the number 600 sticks out but that may be something I made up. :lol:

:lol: No big deal, I was just curious since I don't think I'd seen it on the internet anywhere.

Is the Park BBT-19 the tool used to install/remove GXP bottom brackets for Sram Omniums? Just want to double check.


Also, on a scale of 1-10 (10 being absolutely necessary) how crucial is it to use a torque wrench when installing bottom brackets and cranks?
