    Still running the Tektros, but switched pads to the Kool Stop salmon colored pads (slide right into the Tektro holder, which is a clone of the Dura-Ace holder). Much better braking Very happy with it for now. May upgrade the calipers later, though.

    From Monday's ride.

    Not too familiar with Kestrel. Are the frames bad?

    That's a killer deal. You can get a few year old (still new, though) 105 bike for $1500 + tax. A few year old bike w/ Ultegra would probably run you closer to $1800. If I were looking for a new bike, I would get this.

    Makes sense, I've read that it trickles down through the years. I'll have to keep an eye out on the year when looking at parts. The Tektro brakes aren't bad, per se, but if I can get a noticeable improvement it's something I want to consider.

    Makes sense. How big of a difference do pads make? I've read good things about Kool Stop Salmon pads.

    My 2012 Cannondale Supersix 5 105. Despite being all 105 equipped, the brakes are Tektro. Worth changing to 105 or Ultegra brakes?

    I'm going to assume that since it is satellite based, you need a fairly unobstructed view of the sky, so redwood forests are going to be its Achilles' heel.

    Also a fan of the E60 5-series. The M5 is pure sex0r but a 545i is more economical. Surprising thing about the E60 545i is that an '04-'05 model can be picked up for under $15K these days. Yes, it's almost a 10 year old car, but they are solid and quick. This car is probably not the most practical, but I love them. The L322 (3rd gen) Range Rover HSE. And on a completely impractical note... the Aston Martin DB9:

    Close enough!

    Always been a fan of the E38. This one is slammed, but I prefer them stock with M-parallels.

    This thread is utterly hilarious. Part of me doesn't want to know what you guys think I look like, ha.

    Simple solution for that: press Dismiss and then continue sleeping.

    Can one still find a relatively low mileage, unmolested, non-accident yellow T-5R?

    San Francisco shot through the Golden Gate Bridge. Transamerica Pyramid framed through the north tower's top opening. 7D, 70-200 f/2.8 @ 200mm.

    How about this one.. if not already mentioned. Hand's free mobile phone kit for the 850 (also applies to S70s):
  21. Serge
    Original timer for the 850? Anyone know what it's for?
  22. Serge
    http://www.yelp.com/biz/omaha-steaks-chicago Lots of negative reviews about them all over the internet. Beware.
  23. Serge
    Rear park sensors for the S70?!

    Anyone want 2 free brand new white "Eibach Springs" stickers? Unused, friend bought them a long time ago and never used them. About 6" x 2". Would look like this. If you want it, just let me know and I'll send it off for free.

    Loved it. Stupid spoiled brat kids need to respect their parents.
