Bike just arrived today, very excited for the build. Components as follows
San Marco seat with carbon seat post - keep
Sora rim brakes - keep
Rolf vector comp, wheelset. - keep for trainings set
Boardman flat handlebars and stem - sell
SRAM x5 impulse shifters - sell
Avid brakes - sell
Sora front and rear cassette - keep
SRAM x5 rear derailleur - sell
Sora front mech - keep
Looking to keep all sora parts as that is what I use on my commuter bike. Just got a good bargain on an ultegra 11 speed groupset and will swap that in. Will use jag wire pro cable set for gears and brakes. Looking for good set of light stiff handlebars (carbon looks cool).
Have American classic wheelset set up for tubeless. No idea what I am going to do if I get a hole on a ride that the sealant can’t fix as they are incredibly tight. I have some awesome chisel tyre levers for removing them well and some big fat tyre levers for popping them back in. Does anyone have any tips for putting a tube in a really tight wheelset? I keep pinching the tube.
Will put some photos on the classifieds page of the components I do not use . So just give me a message and we’ll find a fair price.
Final question I purchased the groupset on lfgss here for a pretty good price but got sent a 105 rear cassette and not ultegra. The seller replied to my message and said he would swap an ultegra one. He hasn’t replied to any of my messages. What should I do? Not really too fussed as it isn’t much price difference used.
All the best,
Brunedaprune
