Well, well - the less flamboyant colors (black or navy) of the lightweight tights that I'd mentioned have gone on sale for $175. The burgundy are still $25 less, and are more my flavor, but I figure some of youse more boring guys might be interested

Plenty of lightweight options for out-front mounts, that can accommodate both a computer and a light/camera, on stems with standard four bolt face plates.

I don’t get it. Today my hands were fine. Latex gloves underneath my PI winter gloves.
My feet however, not okay.
I had on socks, wool socks over the socks, toe covers, booties, and neoprene super thick booties.
Feet still got cold.

If a vapor barrier is working on the hands try it on the feet. I just use produce bags under my socks. Keeps all the insulating layers dry and I am not even aware of the moisture on the feet. In fact, I am sometimes surprised by the bags when I take my socks off.

I am guessing the "laces" velcro/boa may have been too tight. But there are too many variables to say for sure.

I would think someone who bought a Waterford might have some idea on bike fit. They are available full custom and you wouldn't need the contraption look of that bike. Maybe not the original owner.
Reminds me of when I was selling my CAAD5 and took it to work to meet up with a buyer, While it was in the shop 2 different guys talked about buying it. They were each about 5'6", or so, and the frame was a 63cm. They insisted they could "make it work". They also said they never paid more than $50 for a used bike.
When the actual interested guy showed up he bought it. He was 6'3".

Before dinner, my 96-year-old grandmother fell in the bathroom. Managed to not break anything, but had a cut on her chin and a banged knee. Crisis averted. We thought. During dinner she started shaking and lost her color, and couldn't get up from the chair even with considerable help. Ambulance came and she's back at the hospital. No news.
Last summer when I visited my uncle died. I'm getting a complex about coming back. And making dark jokes like that because I'm wound up into anxious knots.

The Enve aero stem is not a 4 bolt, but there is a bracket that holds computer and light, but it's close to $100. Brings bar/stem combo to close to $1,000. A lot of coin for a mid-zoot bike.

When I was checking FB Marketplace and Craigslist at least daily for new
Reminds me of another guy I knew who said there was "no way" the bikes in the TDF could cost more than about $300.

The tenant moved out of a rental house a few doors down and they have been renovating it for weeks. They started stripping the roof but stopped for a couple weeks because of rain. Yesterday they stripped the whole roof and today there is a crew up there working in the rain. Seems like a bad idea.

Thanks for posting. I’m debating about just letting the bike shop do it. The mavic rear wheel has a small bend that I would like to be fixed. Might be easier just to have them do everything.
