Meles

I purchased the bike a month ago, and now around 600kms. I think I need to reduce the handlebar stem. You can see it's quite long. I will take it in for a first service soon and get the gears set up correctly as well. I still have to push twice to get the chain onto the larger front plateau. But Campy are really the thing when all you want is a good hard "clank!" change. I am doing the lake of Neuchatel (110kms-68m) often but have a goal to do the round trip of the three large lakes in my area (Neuchatel, Bienne and Morat) which makes up a century (160kms-100m). This is my aim anyway this year. Next year will be the peaks in the alps (4000m climbs). But again I need to do some serious training for that!!! Switzerland is like that. Take care.
