Mine was giving me issues and false readings(270mph average speed over 3.5ish miles + locking up). My lbs gave me a full refund, and ordered a 510 for me with the employee discount.
The new unit has a full warranty, and the shop stands behind it(no hassle).
I get them Oakleys at deals you wouldn't believe, and they take care of me.

Those are nice gloves, if you don't already have these you may want to consider cushioned cork handlebar tape. They do make gel type tape but they don't allow your hands to breath like cork does so I found the gel and other synthetic tape uncomfortable on long hot days, but there are people like them just fine. They also make a gel bar pad which you simply place on the naked bar then wrap the cork tape over it as you wrap, then you get the comfort of gel with the natural wicking of the cork.

Check out garmin sync and you'll never have to take the thing off your bike other than charge it once a week.

Why did you use Wade long ti spindles instead of Speedplay? was it because Speedplay doesn't offer longer spindles that you wanted?

Speedplay only sells Stainless Steel spindles at longer and shorter lengths. I am not aware that the Speedplay Ti spindles are available as shorter or longer lengths. And, the Speedplay Ti pedals have a weight limit of 185 lbs and are 3 mm shorter than standard stainless steel / chromoly spindles.
These longer Wade Ti spindles are Ti, have a weight limit between 200-235 lbs, and are $60. As a disclaimer, these Wade Ti spindles are in no way connected, endorsed, or certified as compatible with Speedplay.

Mark, you have quite the collection of new bikes there. Do you have some pictures or did you post in the Hot or Not thread or What road bike do you have thread? I am sure you have posted that Parlee once or twice, but what about that helix?

Check out the weight.

I couldn't find a listing for Speedplay compatible spindles on the Wade sight. Do you know if those spindles you have will work with the Speedplay Frog pedals? If so which spindles did you get from Wade so I can find it on their site?

FYI, it's WARD industries that make the spindles. Speedplay replacement products aren't advertised on their site, just inquire via email or their phone number.

Those Oakleys are more hideous than the ones posted with the camera. I LOVE Oakley's older designs but recent designs just look weird to me.
