Long time since I posted up a bike...

The Rivet ready for spring.

Dugast Paris Roubaix 25s, Zipp 202s and Ti skewers, Superlogic cockpit, c260°, Aliante Carbon, U-Di2, SiSL SRM w/ Praxis rings, TRP 979EQ, 7900 Chain & Casette, Parlee FD clamp, Elite Custom, Keo Blade Carbon

15 lb.

very nice ride

Does the parlee clamp play nice with the support bolt on the FD? I'm assuming you had to add the little adhesive backed metal frame protector.

Nice, real nice!!

I like that, I like that a lot.

Huh? I just put the clamp on and tightened the FD. Works perfectly.

Sharp looking bike.

There's a support bolt behind all the FD's on shimano electronic gruppos. It acts to support the heavy FD and provide additional leverage when shifting up into the big ring. I'd take a look at that, its not reccommended by Shimano to run without the support bolt extended (i believe it actually voids the warranty), it can cause lots of excess torquing at the FD attachment bolt, and can lead to premature wear of the motors in the FD.

Nice looking bike Rich!

We need to get together and ride soon.... and maybe Ben will too.....

@ Skywalker - interesting. I'll take a look.

@ Harold! What's up man! I definitely need to make a trip up to North Jersey and catch a ride with your crew after B-kill. You guys do the P.R. Ride on Saturdays?
