Today I finally got to ride the frameset I bought from Forrest about a month ago. It was built up for my by Bikeman in Bath Maine and as far as I can tell they did a great job. They were very patient with me during the process of specing, changing and respecing everything, and their prices were more than fair. Absolutely no hassles dealing with Forrest either. The frameset was delivered exatly when and how he said it would be, and the few scratches he pointed out before the sale turned out to be even smaller than I expected. I'll save the extra nail polish for future "beusage".
Only got a short ride in this morning after a little frustration with the assembly. Mostly due to stupidity brought on by lack of sleep. 1st time on a road bike so a bit awkward. Hopefully I'll be able to adjust before tackling the Green Mountain loop solo the week after next. 44 years old and I still don;t have the sense to come in out of the rain (figuratively this week with the nice weather, but literally too). Hope I never do. Thanks to everyone here for all your help, and for any tips, suggestions and words of encouragement you may chose to offer. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
