After last years incident and much patience important delivery arrived at Team No Fixed Income HQ.
A large box was dropped off by the delivery company.
Clearly it was not a secret prototype Nucular fueled by Avocado Toast and tears of the darkside knee brace by Chromag. Instead it was a new Stylus in the 2020 flavour. And the excitement of opening.
And to be honest it has been about a few years since bought an actual new expensive bike. I for many years have been a dirt bag used rider. This will be new to me . New being a completely new frame and parts bike.
Massive cassette reminds this old retro grouch of the old massive pie plate size chainrings for DH at the Kamikaze in Mammoth California. And it is like a 12 speed? Wonder how many of the cogs I will actually use.
One thing will say the 2020 Stylus does feel a wee bit lighter than the first Chromag Stylus I got in 2007. And was sadly stolen in 2015.
Got the soon to be known as Mistress Mk1a3 together, And it looks good. I readily admit it will take a bit for this RGMC card carrying member to get used to the new brakes and shifters. Now to take it for a couple of rides to get it dialed in.
