I drove out there today to check it out. I would say it's not worth the drive up from Decatur. Granted they just opened up, but I wasn't impressed. In my opinion the bike selection was...

I don't know much about shin cramps, but I do know that I am prone to shin splints if I run on hard surfaces like concrete sidewalks. Basically it's an overuse injury that, I think,...

It was interesting to read that Wheelsmith does wheel builds. I checked out their web page but couldn't get much in the way of details. How did you arrange to get built wheels from them? ...

36 spoke / 25 to 28mm seems very stout for...

I might be able to to test ride the Sciroccos, Kev. Never hurts to ask anyway. Right now I've got a set of Protons that came with my bike when I bought it.

George

I really like the El Diente a lot. Mine has standard rather than compact geometry, though.

IMHO the workmanship compares very favorably to the Litespeeds and Sevens that I've seen...

Swapping bottom brackets?

Lately my road bike has been collecting miles and my Trek 4300 mtb has been collecting dust. So I've been thinking of turning it into more of a commuter style rig.
