Frame
|
|
light enough, very comfortable |
|
Fork
|
|
longer axle-to-crown measurement to allow exchange for RockShox 'Ruby' suspension fork without messing up geometry (SRG = suspension-ready geometry) |
|
Headset
|
|
came with frame |
|
Stem
|
|
one of the few pretty standard stems available |
|
Bar
|
|
very light, very stiff, love the ergo-bend |

Handlebar tape
|
|
the most comfortable tape ever made - a must for long rides! |
|

I wanted to give the TransAm a try, which is basically a Flite with a cutout |
|
Brakes
|
|
I wanted black brakes, and the Mavic brakes do not have a QR lever |
|
Brake-/Shift levers
|
|
much better than the 6501-levers on my other road bike |

Chain

pretty and light; I don't like the Al spokes on the Ksyrium SLs |
|
Tires
|
|
excellent tire, and the black 'S' version is also very pretty |
|
Cyclocomputer
|

more features than my desktop PC |
