loosing chunks of carbon isnt a problem, i just hope they've fixed the problem with the pedal inserts that they had with the Next

yeah, and the chain tool!

i didnt consider anything else... apart from the freeride Crankbros wheelset, but they dont have the axel sizes i need.. and they weight a fair bit more than the SX's. And yeah lots of both

faultless, and they've had some hard hits. and i went for saint for reliability, its always going to work.. even when i get a new frame in the future

They should have 'em in stock again now, there was just a large backorder due to the amount of maxles being sold to manufacturers and people who got frames without maxles.

If you're using the 11-21 (uber cheap Madison deal?) Dura Ace cassette on there I see no reason why not to run a chainguide setup. With an 11-34 cassette you'd get a larger spread anyway without the clutter or weight of a front derailleur.

Haha, I forgot that. You're lucky though, I had to wait a month and a half before I got a axle, and even then Fisher put back the delivery dates over and over for 3 more months, in the meantime I had to buy a Sun ringle axle to suffice.. :C

Business is slow but steady. The shop staff don't do anything but stand around waiting for things to be done but as a mech I've always got a job to do, and if I haven't then I'll build a cheap wheel up for stock or something.

However, today was slow enough for me to spend the last part of the day working on and cleaning my commuter.
