Enjoy it!
I got my first road bike a few weeks back and I love it
It's almost as much fun as the mtb! 0 -
Huzzah!
Exactly the same bike as I bought a few weeks ago!
The stock Tektro brakes & pads are dire - I found some 105's on line (cheap as they are "last years) & added KoolStop Salmon pads (total cost £50) to MASSIVE+++++ improvement in braking.
Oh, and you will have a nightmare trying to fit mudguards - after much research and faffing around, I now have SKS Raceblades (XL size) and they are snug & perfect (and easily removed).
Good luck!0 -
