My cowbike. Cowbike b/c it's black and white, and its got scat. Looking to fabricate a new headbadge with a picture of a cow. About k spent to build this bike, my first geared road bike. The campy shifters seem to work on target with the shimano derailleur and 9-speed cassette, thanks to the "hubbub" modification I found online here: http://www.ctc.org.uk/DesktopDefault.aspx?TabID=3946. I can't wait to put some serious miles on this baby. And yes, I know it's a "mountain" stem but it's what I had lying around and it seems to fit pretty well. Ritchey bars are 25.8 mm so it's compatible. I really like the FSA hollow forged crankset, it's very light. Hopefully I won't have problems with it. My biggest concern is really that the shimagnolo indexing works out though.
