Thanks Daniel, I feel better about my choice now!  Went to the LBS this afternoon and told them to put the Force groupo on.  Hopefully will be here by the weekend!Big%20smile

do you want JB to come here and sort you out? LOL

 

 
Shall I add that those Zipps feel really fast and responsive?!Cool

 

...I'm running


do they have ceramic bearings?

Nope, I'm too scared I can't handle the speed and the incredible frictionless advantage they give you! (Read: I'm too cheap for that!  Plus in my mind you got to see the bling you pay for)

Willehond: Jissie jong, dis 'n nice bike.Thumbs%20Up Nou nie 'n spesiale fietsie nie, maar nog steeds niceLOL

 

Ek's eintlik baie verlig om te sien dat dit nie 'n BMC is nie, sou nooit die einde van daai een gehoor het nie.WinkBig%20smile

 

Jy moet definitief die fotos post as sy aangetrek is, sy behoort stunning te lyk. Baie geluk ou maat.

OK, I just came back from the maiden voyage/Dutch bikep0rn photo shoot.  All I can say is I am in love!!!!  I felt like I was floating and the SRAM Force is fantastic.  I am converted after one ride.  Upshifting three gears, WOW.

 

6,8kg's without pedals.Big%20smile

 

Strangest thing happened though, I kid you not, a guy flagged me down in the middle of the road to ask me if he can have a closer look at the bike because he wants to get one.  FREAKY!  I was obviously beaming like a proud father.

 

Also stopped numerous times for some nice bikeprn shots.  Tomorrow, long ride!

Must admit the missing top cap look would freak me out :-)

 

 

I wonder if the bolt is just lower down or how does that work.

There is no bolt insideConfused

 

I'm freaked now... Looks like it is fastened from the outside on the headset collar.  I'm still worried about where the freaking water is going to go (straight to my BB I think. Sht)

 

Anyway, it was designed by Germans, I am sure they have a very good reason for it.

What did you pay for the frame...........  It is a very very nice bike, may you have many safe kilos on it / her.
