One of my last test runs was a good 50 something miles into central London and back, and just didn't quite feel right.
Played around with saddle height and set back while testing, but just needs a bit more.
Its gone from a 50mm to a 70mm to a 100mm and now thinking a 100mm -10 deg, bar ends (for option of extra reach and leverage on hills, but so did not see them coming!), and cutting a lil off the bars will get it perfect.
Meh, as you said, its fun!
Plus there's one happy member here who got a 2 week old 50mm Thomson at a good price, so it ain't all bad! ;)
I swear, my project is nothing like how I originally envisioned it! :P
