New Bars, New Stem, New levers.. so why does my bike feel faster?

I'm "rocking" shimano R400s at the moment they(it) works very well, but I like the brown coloured ones and if you sell them I'd like first refusal thanks

so what do we think? i'm still not sure..

oh tits, you need the honey bar tape to match those..

but the brown looks better..

you need black hoods.

apart from that, it gets me hard

well, i knew the honey tape would match, but thought it might be more interesting this way round, and that the gum'n'honey might be too much.

but yeah, back to black hoods indeed. campag record carbon, init.

thing is, i'll need to buy new bar tape again to fit them, won't i, and it's a million pounds a pop. or can you re-use it?

the flash makes it look more lurid than it is in real life, i think

no no, you can re-use it , if you're careful.

is it self adhesive?

looks like you wrapped both sides in the same direction, so you should redo one side anyway

same direction? what rot is this?

you bollocksed it haven't you?

park

the cane creek levers are the same as the tektro levers which are the same as the condor levers, the weigh the same only the cane creek are the more expensive.
(the rubbers look different though and tektro don't do brown)

RPM you bollocksed it haven't you?

park

yup, did not think of that.
looks like i'll have to do it all again..

MrSmith the cane creek levers are the same as the tektro levers which are the same as the condor levers, the weigh the same only the cane creek are the more expensive.
(the rubbers look different though and tektro don't do brown)

yeah,the rubber is quite sticky and grippy, they say it's better. not sure if i prefer it though

what is it about condor owners and leather? I just bought a pista frame and am feeling like i'm missing leather wrap.

it would go nice with my saddle but i'm afraid of the rain.

erk!

The leather's on there so it feels more like their BMWs..

that's where you're wrong! we have a volvo.

with leather.

bike is faster because you changed the rear sprocket as well silly :)

no, i did that a few weeks ago.

i'm going to go out on it now, to confirm if it was just my imagination.

You sound convinced.. it's our imaginations you need to work on. :)
