For those wondering, 3rensho & Makino never sourced forks from tange unlike cannondale and specialized. Their forks were always made in house from scratch.

If everything goes well, I'm gonna be picking up a power meter today for cheaaaaaap. Still kinda pricey, but relatively cheap.

Shame to hide this bling in the frame.
Something to do in the dead of winter when I'm super bored. I still have to the get the tool(s) to install it.

Irony would have it that WTB is the #1 OEM maker of stock saddles and a bike out there most likely comes with essentially the one you bought.

I have a WTB saddle on my single speed. Once in a while I think about getting something else, but then I'm like, "ehh, s'alright." Hit up the Nashbar sale today and got some Michelin Pro3 tires, LG shorts, and this sweet little number:

Fork came today. Debating whether I should get the crown race milled to 26.4mm or order a headset with 27mm race...

It's down to 19.1 lbs. Rides pretty nice. I think I can get it into the 17's.
Do KiloTT's come with water bottle cages?
