It arrived on Friday, and a friend and I went out for a decent ride on Saturday.
I really like it, it's very fast. It will take me a while to get used to riding drop bars - I ached in some new places on Sunday!
My only negative is more to do with me than the bike. I really struggled up steep hills, as the bike has a compact chainset and I'm used to a triple.
Do I persevere with the compact, or swap out the compact for a triple?
If the latter, is it something I can fit myself or should I get the LBS to do it?
Cheers.
