Rizal Philippines
June 24, 2016
I passed by the Villmayor bike parts in Pag asa Binangonan Rizal to consult Bitois, their and my mechanic for the last 7 years to inquire on how to remove the chatter on my front Bianchi Campagnolo wheelset (there are some dents, I bought it used; I would like to think the owner figured in a collision or some accident)
Well afterwards he showed me a road bike which he just assembled and which was price tagged at P120,000. It has 105 group set, has Zipp like aero wheelset, and carbon fiber frame. I could swear too that my Bianchi is lighter than this expensive bike.
What caught my attention was its 11 32 cog set. But it had a long cage. And they are no selling long cage RD without the group set.
As soon as I got home, I removed the 6600 Ultegra 12 28 cog set and replaced with xt ten speed 11 to 32. And I initially thought it would not fit Its RD is short cage. (The hub is 9 speed only) It did
The B screw was only set at one half and there is still plenty of room to spare.
Where would I get the P120t to get that handsome bike. My Bianchi would do.
I now have best of two worlds with this Bianchi bike. The high speed of 53 x 11, and the climbing ability of 32 cogs. Just like Contador. Hahaha
