Nice, thought you might be a modern day Pantani!
Short drop outs are a pain. I have a dream where I have a garage one day with a wall where I can nail hooks on for lots of chains and underneath write down which gears each work with haha
Nice, I'll keep an eye out - 58 is much easier to come by than my measley 49 preferably but usually make do with 51.

Well for this one I was in the drops as it wasn't too steep but for point hill I was on the tops. That middle section was an absolute grind!
I really like my CAAD10 frame actually... nice geometry to ride, very stiff but also really one of the lightest alloy frames you can get.
My only frustration is the short drop outs... Makes the range of gearing really short with only 1 chain.
So unfortunately for this reason, I'm thinking of replacing it.
I'm currently in discussion with 8bar about a TMPLHOF Team Edition frame, but if not I'm after a Cinelli Parallax Charcoal in 58.
So if you know anyone... 😜 Haha
Looking forward to next week's challenge!
