2003 Bianchi Veloce M Alloy Pro
Road bike |

2005 Marin Novato
XC Mountain bike |
Description: Not much original on this bike.
Upgraded to Deore hydraulic disc brakes in '06.
Replaced the front wheel in '08 (taco'd)
Ultegra 12-23 cassette in '08
Continnental Traffic tires in '08
Major overhaul April '09:
- Shimano SLX Shifters
- Shimano SLX Front & Rear Derailleurs
- Race Face Ride XC 44/32/22 Chainset
- FSA ISIS hollow shaft Bottom Bracket
- SRAM PC991 chain
This has proven to be the perfect commuter bike. With slicks, it feels quite quick & responsive, with studded Nokians it handles most of what a Saskatchewan winter can dish out.
Came very close to replacing the bike this year, but rebuilt it for about 1/3 the cost of replacing it with something with similar specs.
