How do you find the positioning of the brakes and shifters? Do both fall to hand easily without moving along the grip?
I found the combo of Oros with SLX shifters was a difficult one. With levers moved in a little for best finger positioning and shifters inboard they seemed too far away from my thumbs. But moving the shifters outboard gives a clearance issue between the lever cylinder and the shifter body, so the shifter needed to be angled further down. I've got used to it a bit, but still thinking of trying new XT shifters which have the different mount (should clear the cylinder)..Carbon 456 http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtop ... t=12754782

Jay12 it's my pleasure to pass the bike on to someone who will cherish, use and care for it.
The new parts are; Headset, BB, cables and derailleur "jockey wheels". It was also indexed before I pulled it apart. Sorry about the chain!
I was amazed that I could fit the entire bike into the On-One frame box.
It did take about half a dozen attempts to make sure it didn't grind itself down to alloy filings while in transit. Nice to see the packaging held up.
Enjoy it Jayfalling off doesn't hurt....its the landing that hurts
