Ordered a new seatpost collar for the road bike. Salsa Lip Lock. Hopefully that keeps the god damn seatpost from slipping. The stock Cervelo clamp is bottomed out on itself and bending the bolt. As such, every ride it creaks and drops a few mm's. That is so fucking annoying it's not funny.

We'll see. I might get rid of this bike. Once the new wheels come in for the crosser and I get a chance to ride it with road slicks we'll make that call.

Update: Cervelo apparently uses a proprietary clamp on my model year for who the hell knows reasons. Seatpost is a standard 27.2mm, but the OD of the seat tube itself is some fucked up D shape. Great.

So since the clamp was bottomed on itself, I dremeled the opening larger so I could get more compression on it and greased the bolt. If this slips, the bike is gone.

Excited to try the steel bike with the fat 32mm slicks I bought for it.

Maybe. Sunday might be a decent riding day if the rain holds off.

Sounds like they ordered a new leaf pack instead of the shim from what my SA told me.

You using any carbon paste?
I spread that sandy :jizz: all over it. Finish Line paste. I guess I could rough the thing up with sandpaper next.

Welcome to PA. Hunting > everything else.
You'd think the deer would steer clear of the trails because of all the noise. Nox is always jammed when we go.

Come to think of it, I've never seen one there.

You'd think they'd steer clear of roads too with that logic. :nope:
:lol: True. They're pretty stupid.

New Warbirds :jimp:
Friend of mine has one. As capable as my bike and a lot lighter. Good buy for anyone who wants a gravel rig. This, Ibis Hakka, and SC Stigmata lead the carbon gravel pack IMO.

Wifey did a Liv clinic with them in the spring. One of their owners (Jess) is a Liv ambassador and just won a 24 hour endurance race.
