I'm still upset with myself for not taking more detailed pictures of just how beautiful the machining is on the xg1190, it's amazing. What gearing is that? You're one gram lighter than me!

What did you pay for those bottle cages? Fellow Force 22 fan here! Looking good!

Edit: I see they are listed for $79.99 each on the Bontrager site. Ouch.

Yes, in trying to keep this of a somewhat budget build so I went with the force derailleurs to save some money but I had to splurge for the Red22 cranks and shifters...
Hopefully they arrive soon!

Wow.. $79.99 each? Haha mine even came with the official looking Bontrager Paper Holders.. check out the below link!

Look what I found on AliExpress

No problem dudes.. that seller is one of best I have felt with. It took less then 2 weeks to get the cages! Also the quality is very good.. if I get bored I might de badge them :)

@stihl.. sounds like a climbing machine, unfortunate I don't have any feedback on how the CAAD12 rides yet but hopefully it will be good news :)


Only good news today is the KMC X11SL arrived.. 112links.

Good News... the Cranks and shifters arrived along with a couple other odd bits. I must say the new style Sram Red22 components look awesome!!

Looks like the only thing I'm missing is the damn Hylix Seat post but atleast it's in New York so should be here by the middle of next week!

Also.. I'm very impressed that all of my estimated weight should have been almost spot on, the only questionable estimate will be the cables. It seems a more realistic estimate will be around 125-150!

Ok.. Pardon my ignorance but I need some assistance with two issues.

The first concern is that in missing some type of cable end that should fit into the portion in the photo? If not how should the cable be?

Image

Second concern is that I am missing some type of bearing seal or washers? Should I have washers that go on the outside of the bb30 bearings?

Image

Mucho thanks in advance!!
