My boardman team carbon with fulcrum racing zero red passion wheel set, looking to upgrade the shifters to 105 from the current tiagra mainly because I don't like the cabling on show from the tiagra's

Nice, only a couple of months ago you had a lovely Giant, what happened? (And a couple more before that which were for sale if I'm not mistaken) was you bored with it/them already?

yeah justinslow had a few.

sold my tcr which i really enjoyed to build a giant propel with dura ace which i hated. only rode twice just not for me.

looked at new tcr advanced pro but was lots of money for the spec....

decided on synapse hi mod and get a smile even just a short ride to work

need to do more miles on it first

Growing Old is Compulsory...Growing Up is Optional
I doubt it. Probably 90% - or more - of new bikes are specced with layback posts of some sort or other.

My Orro Oxygen came with a 3T Stylus 25 as standard, so that's definitely how they spec them up. I'm not sure if it's relevant to the geometry either, I'm going for a bike fitting sometime soon so i'll post some results after that.

That would be really interesting...

toyed with the idea of a bike fit last year but funds being low opted not to..

be interested to read your opinion.

Of topic completely I know and some will say its worth the money but not convinced its something you could not just work out for yourself ?? In fact if you have a turbo trainer or something to mount the bike on there are apps available which can record your position on the bike , minimal gains and all that ? Bike fit seems to be relatively new in being offered to anyone, remember alot of the pro`s out there are sitting on custom built bikes with top tubes longer or shorter than mass produced etc as an example. You don`t get all that with an off the peg bought bike ?
