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!


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

Black 2013 S-WORKS shoes.
44.5 / US11 weighed in at 219 grams, excl inner soles 20 grams.

Ended up half a number smaller than other road shoes I have owned - e.g. Sidi, Diadora, Pearl, Giro,
Lake.

Feels very small on the foot, super low profile, maybe also aided by the stealth color.
4,5 mm sole, replaceable rubber at the heel.

Mixino is the new top offering from Catlike.
Very similar to whisper in the front, changed the vents a little bit. From the side it looks different. Much smaller, the exhaust vents are a lot closer to the head/less volume. They shaved 50 grams compared to whisper. New retention system, basically the same fit. Came out under claimed weight, 210 grams for medium, 54-59.

Sorry for the poor photos, no daylight here in Norway at the time I return from work.

Love the DMT shooz. I thought I liked the Mixino but after seeing that colour scheme I ain't too sure now?? I use a Whisper at present and its good to know the fit is the same, because if I buy one it will be mail order.

It comes in matte black, white, Movistar, white/lime, white/blue, white/red, black/lime and black/red (like mine). The Norwegian distributor only received a few samles so far. I also have a black whisper already, most fond of the solid color versions.

Fit is not identical, but quite similar. Maybe a little bit shallower, but sits perfect on my head.
