His stuff is nice but is seriously a super nice humble guy. He built me one for my Crumpton as well. The price was less than a high end seatpost saddle combo.

Unfortunately, I still tinker around with saddle position too much to get a one piece like that.

Just ordered a Shimano 6800 front hub for my new wheelset project. Haven't ordered a rim and spokes yet, but it'll be a Pacenti SL-23 and Sapim CX-Rays.

Got these for a nice price on Ebay. Doubt they'll make much of a difference at my fitness level but on paper they are a huge upgrade from my current R500s

Caved in and got a Sonic Fluid indoor trainer on sale with a CycleOps front block riser for the frigid sub-0 days ahead.
Mock setup in the living with my motivation on the tube for next season. :-)Heading outside for a quick ride now to enjoy what's sure to be one of the last days in the 40s for a few months...

I'd swap that rear tire out with a smooth tread to cut down on the noise from the trainer. Also, go out and buy some foam mats to put under it or you'll get a hell of a lot of noise off that hardwood floor!

Road helmets can be worn on mountain bikes, but never the other way around.

Fizik Arionne VS. I like how flat it is front to back -- easy to change positions on.

Nice purchase on the 7800's! IMO 7800 is Shimano's best looking group ever. Its simple, & classy looking.
I'm always on the lookout for 7800 groups, I currently have one in use, & one waiting to be used.
