took my new bike out on its first ride today with dan. this bike is sweet. pretty stuff and very responsive to what i want it to do. it feels great when im out of the saddle, very stable and fast.the size fells great even with a 90mm stem, but i think a 110 with more rise would benefit me. im very impressed with the ultegra components as opposed to the tiagra group i was riding before. shifts are faster and smoother. esp the front derailleur i thought was quite crisp. the concor light saddle is pretty comfy too i like it. i was concerned about it being too narrow but it was fine. the best thing is the bontrager bar tape which is comfy, but even better was wrapping it which i did backwards on one side, i dont think ive ever wrapped a bar correctly in my whole life :( instead of having adhesive backing it has two thin stripes of rubber grippy stuff that grips instead of adheres while you wrap. SO GENIUS! the blackburn neuro 6.0 is pretty cool, but acted a little funny at first. i had to adjust the sensors a couple times throughout the ride but got it goin by the end. it has so many functions itll take some time to get used to the workflow of it. i cant imagine how complicated a garmin must be at first heh. anyways on to the pics.
