Do I have the record yet for most saddles? :D

I think we could expand it to simply "most stuff"... "most really really nice stuff." :p

Tell us how you like the saddle, once you have some miles on it. I use the "old" Flite.

Oh for sure!
It should be here Friday! I read a review about this one comparing it to the current Selle Italia that I have, and it sounds like it may be better suited for longer rides.
Stay tuned :)

(BTW, it's an 11/23)



i've got an 11/23 on my PT wheel with standard crank. excellent for training up the palos verdes hill. it doesn't take long before your lungs and legs are used to it. :)

And that's because you've got the double century bug now that you've completed your first.;)

SRAM PC991 Hollow Pin chain, Shimano XT Cassette.

After breaking 2 shimano chains, I only replace with SRAM chains.

Bill, Want to do STT this SAT?

Same here on the SRAM. Gotta have that powerlink, too.

Want to? Yes. But I don't think I can.

Ditto on the Powerlink. I carry one just in-case...
but haven't needed it at all w/ the SRAM.

To go with the new helmet, new bar tape. I sprung for luxury bar tape for my first wrap job.

http://www.performancebike.com/shop/...tegory_ID=5256

I didn't buy it at performance though. I got it at B & L in Point Loma. Silver, for extra bling.

Matches very nicely with your bike. :beer:

Mo'Phat 08-07-07 07:24 AM

I was going to say that it matches your reflector...but yes, it matches the bike as well.


/what's with the one reflector?

efficiency 08-07-07 07:40 AM

The bike came like that. I'm lazy.

Cool!

Have you checked Amazon/New Egg/MWave for memory? I got a 2 gig Extreme for 30 or so I think a few months ago from Amazon.

Luwin1026 08-07-07 03:05 PM

I have to admit, that before I click on this thread, every time I see that someone like jpconrad or Gretzky was the last poster to reply, I click on the "last post" button with hungry anticipation expecting a ****** purchase like Lew wheels or saddle #40, etc. :p

Shprung 08-07-07 03:08 PM

So you can screenprint your own logos? Or because you just don't want to advertise?

Try www.louisgarneau.com for blanks. I'm pretty sure you can buy them, even though they are the templates for their semi-custom line.

So I can screenprint my own logos/design.
Plain white will be best.
