Wanted a gravel bar for this build, next thing I knew I bought a stem, saddle and seat post from Rapide.

Some bling tyres. Same as what I had on, these just have a reflective strip. 
Some new rim tape.
A new KMC X11

After a year of doing the whole “gravel bike with 2 wheelsets” vibe, finally got a road frame.

My Redshift Shockstop stem arrived today from the US site. They have a 25% off sale, but the delivery is a significant portion. Worked out at:

USD 143 Stem

USD 66 Delivery

R795 for taxes

Ordered on the 7th, arrived on the 15th. Amazes me that something can travel that far in such a short amount of time.

These bikes are lekker, although could be more slammed

My third TR bike, but the first road bike from them.

First ride today, and it was a pleasure. I've been riding a gravel bike for 2 years now, so the differences are noticable, it's going to take some getting used to.

Thanks Bike Addict in Malmesbury!
