Perfect day to bail out of work early and play in awesome conditions.

And you do stand on a piece of carpet when changing, right?

I've had this bike for about 4 ish years and haven't touched a good damn thing. Well, except for wheels, seat, and chain/cassette. Everything else is pretty much original.

Ive been contemplating upgrading to 2 x 11, but I'm really not sure what the point would be. 2x 10 red is still working pretty much perfectly. I may go with a bigger cassette cause I live in ze hills.

Any point in upgrading?

Not really, 11spd gearing options are better/lower, I went 11-30 in the fall. The shifts are slightly sharper but are more prone to bad shifting if the drive train is dirty.

This is the kind of input I was looking for.



I think I may put a 30t on the back too. I need a new big ring in the front.
Do you run Sram or Shimano cassette and chain?
