How I yearn to be thinking about aesthetics again.
Gripped by a deadline to have the bike ready for this Sunday, I've been in a SRAM hydraulic induced stress and want to scream into an abyss.
The weekend gone saw a hose swap and a new hose fitted and as much as I want to scream FUCK SRAM, I may have been pushing my luck. Glancing at Strava gear, some of this groupset is 20,000 miles old, and on a third rebuild using the original bladders. The bleed ports and syringes have seen better days too.
Took the bike on the commute today and the left lever is losing fluid.
Next day delivery inbound with a new bladder. SJS cycles are now official partner of this build.
The lifeline wiggle frame bag isn't going to be doing this justice... there might be a few upgrades.. if I ever pay off all these frames.
It's a fine line and I might need help staying on the right side!
Think 4 purple points might be the limit. Seatpost, headset and hubs.
Caught myself looking at Hope and Paul Boxcar purple stems :/
