I went from 9 speed to 10 speed on my old Serotta. Put some 6600 ultegra brifters on, a new chain, and a dura ace 7800 rear der.
Similarly, on my gravel bike, the old ultegra 9 speed brifters...

Sick!

Yeah I like the rainbow one too. I saw a speshy aethos in sort of a carbon black iridescent rainbow cloud for lack of better terms down at contender the other day. Thing looked awesome!

Sweet. I'm gonna hit it up. Gracias señor!

Where? I demand to know.

Found a new to me Peruvian join in SLC the other night. Mmmmmmm472558

Now I'm drooling... I should. I'll start paying attention and squirreling away some $. Definitely maybe.

^^^ hell YEAH! South America is awesome.

I found some sam hill titanium pedals on the local classifieds. My pedals on the bike are missing pins, broken pins, etc, and these look cool. I'll try em.

^^^you should make a YouTube how to video on this and post the link here.

I had to take it to a sketchy motel for her first time, I didn't want my other bikes to get jelly.

Based on the serial number I think this is the 12th Penhale made.

I grabbed a gravel frame today, get to build it up. Gotta figure out what I want it to be...

I got some new shoes yo!464322

Some bikes will come and go. That one will always be here.

Yeah, it is a nice saddle. $100 on ksl. looks brand new. Just rode an hour and a half with it, and it just disappeared underneath me. Looking forward to how it feels with a few more miles.
Yeah,...

I bought a new seat. I do love KSL classifieds. Haven't ridden it yet. Gonna give it a go this afternoon.

I put a Pirelli pero road 26 in there. Plenty of clearance front and rear. 28 would start to get tight.

I bought tires, tubes, cables, and bar tape.

Shit is expensive yo! But the bike is all cleaned up and rtg. I even polished the frame and waxed it. I think I'll go ride it tomorrow.

...

Booyah! ^^^

I'm psyched to go through it and get it on the road.

Little demon in the back of my head finally got to me. Psst, what if a dropout comes unglued on your 25year old carbon frame? What if there is a small crack and you eat it goin 40mph down city...

The time looks like a good time. Looks fast. 10/10 would bang.
I like the leather look grip tape against everything else super carbony. I might have to do that to my road bike.

I paid $2500 locally, for what appears to be a very lightly used well maintained example. It's the XT/SLx and fox performance build. Other considerations were a rocky mountain altitude and a...

I snagged a new to me bike today. 2018 SB6.

I snagged some wheels for my old Turner 5spot. Got some mavic crossmax xl for a hundred bucks. Finally went tubeless. Crossmax made it soooo easy. Felt pretty good on the...
