Raceware Direct's Garmin mount

Bummer that it added ~13g, but there's been so much excitement about alternative Garmin mounts that I figured it was worth a try.

BIG sale at Fairwheel bikes!

Going to re-cable when I put these bad boys on... just waiting on Aican brake cables to marry up with Alligator iLink shift cables (and some bad weather).

mmmm, 356g (arms and spider). Best part is I saw this on ebay- contacted the seller and it turns out his ebay ID looked familiar because he had just purchased my scott addict frame the month before. The day after I bought these from him he purchased my carbon chainrings for vumaquad cranks. Maybe we'll just keep buying each other's stuff!

Picked up a used red rear derailleur off the bay. For the steel build I scored a new rival crank for $75 w\bb.

Got the crankset today-- 544g w/ BB. Could go up about 15-20g if the extralite rings suck as bad as they used to and I swap them out, but it works for me, and I have them, now!

Anyone wanna buy 2 sets of 172.5 vumaquads w/ a bunch of 50/34 rings and BB's? :D

Gaulzetti Corsa frameset in Fluo yellow. Super excited. Should be a bit of an upgrade off of the caad9 I've been on for the last few months. Gonna build it up with the parts off of that (record11, EEbrakes, SiSL wired SRM, King/Hed tubulars/Veloflex). Build thread/pics to follow
