first 'proper' ride today a 20 mile loop to my friends bewery and back.. sadly it was very very windy and up a hill i thought i was in 2nd gear so pulled to get into the smallest when i was already there thus pulling out my soldered gear cable and leaving me with 8 miles to travel with a 90+ gear inch... shitter
also wearing my race shoes the instep is so high on them they mean i have to raise my saddle by an inch making the drop even more sever but no back ache as yet
other wise good, i like this bike! now the cable is out i can replace the shifter with my non-indexed one so shifting should be better too
