Finally put a deposit down on a bike last week Monday. Decided on a USA made steel frame, not a custom frame, but a good custom build, and finally going with Hydo Disc. The local shop said about 8 weeks, looked on the calendar, and 8 weeks from last Monday is my Birthday , the Monday after Thanksgiving. So a Yellow Gunnar Hyper X with mostly Sram Rival hydro(force crank) and good wheels.
Will be taking the place of my 2001 Cross check that started out as my SS cross race bike for a couple seasons, then went to winter trainer/rain bike duty since about 2006 or 2007, and running a 9speed Shimergo drivetrain with Chorus 10 shifters and shimano 9speed cassette and rear derailer. Hopefully the leap to SRAM double tap(with about 10 years of Campagnolo ridding on a couple bikes) on one bike won't be too hard of a leap to get used to. Especially after ridding home from work in a lot of rain last Thursday night I'm sure I'll prefer disc brakes on the road, or gravel road.
