A new addition to the fleet

[charlie]

When a club rider offered me a 2009 model TCR Giant frame last year for $400 I'm glad I didn't hesitate and picked the frame up on the same day it was offered to me.
Over the last six months or so I have shopped mainly online, purchasing an ultegra 6700 groupset , 3T ergonova compact bars and stem, pro vibe seat post and san marco saddle and along with white fizik bar tape I'm glad I made the effort to assemble my own road bike .

Well done, pictures are mandatory of course, and should be in line with the BNA unwritten bike pic rules as per follows:

-Taken in front of a roller door, preferably beige or similar in colour
-Drive side must face camera
-Cranks should be level to the ground
-Always in the big ring

And of course, the valve stems at the Three and Nine O'Clock positions, (Front and Back..)...

Provided this doesnt make the wheel decals look silly

I will post photo's after I have installed the new hoops....I'm waiting for Hope Pro 3 hubs to be laced into DT swiss RR 415 rims with Sapim CX Ray spokes 28/32....
