All your builds are on point !

What do you like better the Dura Ace 7710 or the Campagnolo Pistas ?

Posted about 11 years ago

SillyGooseCookie

SillyGooseCookie says:

Thanks! I love your new D2! I like the look of the C-Records more but the 7710's are stiffer and lighter. Both are top-notch cranks though.

Are those Lee Chi levers dependable? Got some for free from the LBS here. Tank yu, tank yu.

Posted about 11 years ago

SillyGooseCookie

SillyGooseCookie says:

yeah they're pretty nice. the right side dummy lever rattles a bit though (but that's just the nature of a dummy lever). But yeah I have no real complaints with them.

Go i gotta axe! How much did you get that wheelset for and how does it ride?

btw awesome awesome build, i love your handlebar setup with them brakehoods looks extra comfy.

Posted almost 12 years ago

SillyGooseCookie

SillyGooseCookie says:

Thanks! I got the hubs at a swap meet for $170 (they were new in box) and the rims were around $200 (I had to buy them straight from the manufacturer, so shipping was quite expensive) and spokes and nipples were $70. I built the wheelset myself, so I didn't have to pay for labor. Besides my Sheriff Stars, these are best riding wheels I've ever ridden. I love everything about them.

mikerawk

mikerawk says:

Nice!pretty much a brand new setup,that's awesome! Just curious how did you learn to wheel build? Save alot of money doing things yourrself. If you were to sell the wheelset how much do you think you'd axe? thanks for the info!

Posted almost 12 years ago

SillyGooseCookie

SillyGooseCookie says:

http://sheldonbrown.com/wheelbuild.html I followed that, and then went to my mechanic whenever I got stuck (I built it at my LBS). I'm not sure how much I'd ask... If they were new I'd probably ask around the 500-600 mark.

SillyGooseCookie says:

I love them so much! I'm a big guy so they're the perfect width for me. They're a little bit flexy, but it's really not that bad. So, overall, they're really great bars.

Love it! Digging the Shamal, and pretty much everything else!

Posted over 12 years ago

SillyGooseCookie

SillyGooseCookie says:

I love Shamals, the front one doesn't get too much use on this bike though, because of how thin the Tufo Tubular tire is (19c!). And it pops really easily, I once hit a driveway lip and popped it. Luckily my LBS had Tufo tire sealant, so the tire still works well! Also, they can go up to 220psi!! And I really, really can't wait to see how your Pista Concept will turn out, it will definitely be one of the best out there!

justskidding

justskidding says:

I'm thinking of getting something like a Shamal or some other sort of deep aluminum or carbon wheel for the front to put for show every once in a while. And much appreciated! The headset and stem should be arriving on Thrusday! All I will need to do after that is upgrade the crankset (found a killer deal on 75s with zen ring) and it will be done.

Posted over 12 years ago

SillyGooseCookie

SillyGooseCookie says:

Shamals are great. You're in the SF bay right? There's a clincher set for 600 OBO and a tubular for 500, check those out. :) And great choice going with the 75's, I love mine.

Posted over 12 years ago

justskidding

justskidding says:

Maybe once I get more money I'll buy a Shamal or something else for the front but for now I just need to guy buy those 75s haha.

either one is nice, as soon as my paint gets chipped more (there are like 2 or 3 little chips/scratches now) I'll paint it blue with white or black decals. Specifically, grabber blue http://mustang1.net/data/media/30/2010_...
