Not quite a current project, more of a slow evolution. I threaded my rear hub so put on a spare coaster wheel in the meantime, and it feels very summery, so I'm sticking with it for now. Although the little idiosincrocities (?sp) will probably get on my nerves eventually.
I switched the risers to ITM northroad bars with brook tape...and a bell. The position feels a lot nicer.
Also Im amazed at the difference in smoothness having a low section touring(ish) rim with lower spoke tension Vs. CXP33's. I obviously expected it, but sometimes it's supprising how differnent it makes the differnce to the overall feel of a bike.
