New Stem, New Bike

So it was a sweet deal on Ebay but took a month for the FOCUS to actually get here. Well almost a month. Its not quite white, very strange styling/design from Germany. Bright white and red accents - had been hoping all white. The Fulcrum wheels and Conti tires are a nice touch. Will need to replace the long cage derailler and 28 tooth pancake rear cog.

Poor "Carbon Lord" sold me a stem for the Giant, after helping me determine the old, crumbling stem was not sold by him but by an outfit calld "VeloCarbon". New stem is nice, but has been flipped upside down to provide an extra inch or 2 of lift off the front for me.

Ordered another Xtracycle and Peapod seat. Will need to make space, pondering selling off the tandem, the Giant (assuming the Focus works out) and as always, the electric motorcycle.


I need room for a MotorDoper rig as well...
