The New Ride
It’s finished. The anticipation is over. The two 51 cm P3Cs that the LBS is getting in both already have 20% deposits on them from other customers so they’re as good as sold. So I ended up with the bike that I really convinced myself was the better buy for me without having the sexiness of the black and red carbon weave to tempt me to spend more money than I needed to. So without further ado…
Right from the LBS:
And built up:
I’m waiting for QR to ship me some decals which I prefer a little better (I’ve got to stick with the whole red, white, and black theme now) so the frame should look like:
And I’ll probably end up with these to go with it:
For those in the market for new gear, I have these available for purchase. :) They hit eBay tomorrow so hit me up today and I’ll give you a deal if I can avoid paying eBay commission:
Ok, enough with the pictures. It’s kind of crappy out today with a mix of rain so I don’t know if I’ll get the bike outside today for a ride. I did ride it for about five minutes yesterday just to ensure that it all worked. I don’t know if it’s the titanium or the jump in wheel sizes from 650c to 700c (or maybe a combination of both), but the ride is considerably smoother. Hopefully I’ll be able to get it out for a longer ride this weekend for a more comprehensive review.
