Thanks! The seat is Fizik’s 3D printed dealio. It’s kind of a funky green color. I think it would clash with the blue of the frame (vertigo blue). I don’t love the color of the Fizik saddle, but it’s very, very comfortable. Best saddle I’ve ever ridden.

Where did you get it? Are they actually custom made - as in the shop measures you and you pick up your saddle a little later? A saddle can never be too comfortable!

Ordered a new Allez Jr for my 10 year old. Should be here Thursday according to UPS. Wife picked up a new ‘19 Domane SL6 last weekend at our local shop.

Waiting for a Cube Acid 240 Jr. to arrive from the UK for my 9 yr. old son. Since his older sister transitioned to a road bike last summer, he's been wanting a geared bike. He just didn't feel comfortable enough riding with drop bars so this was the next best thing. Also got road/hybrid tires to replace the OE knobby tires the bike comes with. Of course, I had to treat myself too; Campagnolo Shamal Ultra C17s.

I just bought a Garmin Varia RTL515 to improve my safety factor out there. I'm going to test it out tonite.

Since reviews are very good, I will give it a try and if it doesn't fit I'll pass forward

I just ordered/received a Park HCW-5 Bottom Bracket Lock-ring Wrench and a Park CCP-22 Crank Puller. I'm migrating from purchasing automotive tools (it's a hobby) to bicycling tools. Which means I'll finally get around to cleaning up my 1981 Schwinn Super Sport!

My wife started riding indoors for exercise and liked mine, so I had to order another. If yours doesn't work out for you, I'd gladly take it off your hands. I have a Power Elaston that I use as a fallback, but I don't like it as much as the Mimic.

Tektro short reach road levers and:
Campy Centaur calipers and:
Jagwire cables to connect them.
All to add some stopping power to the old C'Dale I'm setting up for my daughter.

Um, what?!
OK, so shipping was still almost $16. Still. I like the Aeron stuff, it's my size, and it's hard to go wrong with bright colors for evening rides on woodsy roads. Score.

These came for Father's Day. There is one more on the way from the UK that will take a while. I believe it is this one:
This doubles the number of nice jerseys I have. I have a bunch of not so nice ones too, and maybe those can be retired now that I have these. I have 10 pair of decent shorts so the collection will last about 2 weeks of riding before laundry.
I have a thread about sizing in the Road Cycling forum. Large and extra large and they are really pretty small.
