So this morning I picked up my (virtually) new bike from my local bicycle shop. The build come out looking AMAZING -- I will definitely post pictures soon. It is funny, but I almost feel like I have a "Frankenbike" at this point -- it is a hodgepodge of sorts, with the new frame, parts from my original Klein Quantum, and other parts that I changed or replaced along the way. The following is a rundown of my new steed, "The Dark Knight":
Parts From My Original Klein Quantum
- Shimano 105 front and rear brakes
- Shimano 105 front derailleur
- Shimano 105 cranks
- Look pedals (I am not sure which model)
- Cateye CD100 Astrale computer
- Profile Design T2 Wing base bar
- Profile Design T2+ aerobars
- Shimano Dura Ace shifters
- Cane Creek 200TT brake levers
- Felt STS stem
- TNi Bento Box
- Shimano Tiagra rear derailleur
- Neuvation M28 Aero3 wheels
- Planet Bike Button Cage bottle holders (which I think are just awesome for the price)
- Motobecane Nemesis Pro frameset (including front fork)
- Kalloy Uno seatpost
- Specialized TriTip Gel saddle
- Chain (I have no idea what brand or model)
Like I said, she's kind of a Frankenbike, but I love her already. I was planning on going out on my maiden voyage today, but it has been raining pretty much all day. Tomorrow is supposed to be much nicer, so hopefully I will be able to get my first ride in then...
