Thanks,
Really good, no complaints! Had to get used to the aggressive geo at the start but only took a couple of rides and now it feels normal.

Very very nice!! Cool Chainset combo - fits the bike well, Ellipses are always cool, mavic has an outstanding quality and the decals on the frame are also very nice.

Thanks! Yep loving the new wheels, only had them for a couple of days but already feel great.

I hope that they will serve you well. I have a set of Mavics on my MTB right now that I've literally beaten the crap out of for almost 6 years, still true, bearings are fabulous, no spoke emergencies. I've even cycled through rills and swamps, I'm amazed.

I wish that I was living in a place where you don't have arctic winter half a year.

ps, how comfy is the zoncolan? The concor is comfy for short rides, but did 60km last week and ended up with a sore ass..

It's not too bad, at the start I was actually more comfortable on the concor whilst I was dialling in the correct angle etc. I haven't done a super long ride yet, only about 45km and it wasn't too bad.
I'll be doing BUPA 100km in a month so that'll be the big test!

I'll put up some more pics (also of the driver side) later this week, almost got run over when I took this one so decided to call it a night!

I'll take it off and get some pics for you, probably later in the week after it stops raining here.

I generally don't like Leader bikes..maybe it's just the build that people come up with... but this one... is... beautiful. bravo, bravo.

looks so nice! like it way better than the older ones.

I was going to get the old one but they had sold out and these ones were being shipped out, so got this instead. No regret there!

Why the FGFS hubs ?
Posted almost 12 years ago
When I went to build the wheels, the mech recommended these over other hubs such as Velocity, especially for the price I got them at. Meant to be pretty bomb proof and spin forever, so I guess I'll be the Guinea pig on how they go!

Yep, 50CM C-C would be too cramped.
