And we're getting to present date. This weekend the weather here was great, so to try the bike I loaded up the panniers with random stuff to feel how it rides with weight. And I like it. Super steady, easy to handle.
Went to my lbs and picked up some Globe fenders I had ordered. Also cut the steerer down a bit (it's still very awkward to have no drop, but comfy). Swapped that awful adjustable Specialized stem that came with the bike with something they had laying around. It's actually carbon, which makes the slowest of my six bikes the only one with a crabon stem. With time I plan to get a Thomson for it, but I'll wait a bit so I know I get the right angle and length.
