T-minus 1 week, time to get the race rig built so I still have time to work out the bugs.
Frame was stripped, with 2-3 ounces of water pouring out from the BB shell. Luckily, I coated the whole thing with Wurth CU-1100 copper-paste grease so there's virtually zero corrosion. I will have to Weigle the seat tube tomorrow to inhibit a tiny bit of rust in there.



Got my RockShox SID World Cup back from SRAM, they did not waranty my lowers (snapped the dropout off bombing down a fire road), so for a nominal cost they put on new lowers and new seals. I opted to not go with the heinous blue lowers, and instead got a greenish-gray color, and they even noted my lack of decals when I sent it in, and sent it back the same way. Not a big deal, but a nice customer-service touch. They even called me to verify before they shipped.



In 13 months, the fork has been in for waranty work 2 times... hopefully this time it will last the whole season. The carbon steerer tube & crown were replaced, as were the uppers (all 3 are bonded into a single unit).
