Re: [RBW] Shake down ride of the RAM
Actually that was the best part... it was 60 plus degrees out. Fantastic day for riding! The ski resort was tough climbing back out of but fun.

Sounds like you had a wonderful ride. What were the temps like? Looked cold. Nice Rambouillet!

Re: [RBW] Shake down ride of the RAM
Very nice -- high end parts! Yours is the color of mine. I'll be using the same pump, too. Very nice crankset! My build has been stalled due to illness last week and two weeks of jury duty. I'm still waiting for a few miscellaneous parts; I'm hoping to get another tubular wheelset before too long but I have one to start with and I think I have the required three usable tires. Have: BB -- Phil 116 asym Crankset: Pro 5 Vis 44/30 Pedals: Look Keo Plus Bar: Noodle 42 Stem: Specialized Aero 8 cm Brakes: Veloce dual pivot -- we'll see if I can get these to work. Brake levers: Dura Ace aero pre-STI Shifters: Dura Ace 7400 era downtube Front der: Dura Ace, pantograph era RD: Dura Ace 7400 era Seatpost: Nitto Jaguar Saddle: Flite, original issue FW: Shimano 600 31-21 7 speed Chain: SRAM 8 speed Bag: probably Carradice Junior Cage: King Iris Still need to get: Cables and housing Stan's -- for tubbies! I hope that I can build it this week. The tubs will require a learning curve.
