Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

We had a good ride. The course and pace were a bit faster than ideal, but we stayed together and no one got dropped or butthurt.

Well, then you're in luck! It's probably 6 speeds, with indexing!

Also 126mm spacing and being aluminum, no safe way to spread the stays.

Speaking of which, i’ve have already started thinking about Christmas this year. Besides a couple more thermal bibs, and maybe one more thermal jersey or base layer. I’ve been thinking A, 105 11 mechanical for the ritchey. Depending on how much the price drops, B. Super team wheels for the Ritchey. Thinking 35-45 mm deep. C. Power meter for the Ritchey, Single side pedals D, Easton carbon bars for the Cervelo. E, A spare set of superteam wheels for the cervelo.


Decisions.

Whyfi will inform me that all of these are stupid except for the power meter.

Screaming deal indeed. Looks barely ridden. If that crankset isn't scratched up, you could probably sell that alone for the price of that whole bike.

Based on 500 miles experience with mechanical Ultegra/rim brakes and ~2500 miles with mechanical 105/discs, I'd say the new 105 mechanical groupset for the Ritchey is definitely NOT stupid.

And probably should, since it's not a match, AFAICT. Should be 1055 generation 105. That's some kinda Campy.

The legendary Mavic “Starfish” crankset!

I’d buy it just for that and resell the rest.

The C&V guy with whom I organized the monthly C&V rides has been known to buy entire bikes for a seatpost.

Maybe instead of aero handlebars for the Cervelo, he should get aerobag handlebars?

Or substitute a set of MTB pads for the new thermal bibs - the pads will keep him warm enough.

Do what I did for the R8000 - buy it piecemeal and never total it up.

I haven't kept up - is Shimano expected to offer a 12sp mechanical 105? If not, R7000 might not go down.

Sounds expensive, but I guess I don’t actually need brakes, and I have a spare 11 speed cassette. So I really just need, chain rings, cranks, derailers and shifters.
