Well I took her out for a bunch of really fun rides in the north west corner of Connecticut. First off don’t let anybody tell you and old 911 is not a practical vehicle. With the right number of suction cups…

I found some really beautiful rides thanks to ride with GPS I also enjoyed their turn by turn directions since I was in unfamiliar territory



there were some pretty significant climbs on this and I found that the 38 front 27 rear was just not enough. I got a deal on a nice SRAM PG990 11 to 34 9sp and put it on the back on the hub. From my Bottecchia I know that you can push derailer is past air rated limit. I was using an eight speed or Ace on that bike and got away with an XTR 12 to30 to 8 speed with no problem. I’m using a nine speed race on this bike and it can handle the entire range.

what am i missing? If it works it works?
