    Impending Seven Delivery...twitching

    My Ti Seven Mudhoney frame should be arriving within the next 7-10 days. I am stoked! We have saddle, seat-post, fork, wheels...now the wait is on Shimano to crank out my Ultegra Di2 components ASAP (as of now they are apparently out-of-stock and have been for a while). Kinda bummed that I won't likely have my new ride in time for the One Day Ride Across MI. But it will be kinda nice to give my trusty Cdale SuperSix a 3rd trip across the state before he is converted into a bit of a pseudo TT bike.

    They market it as a CX bike...but...it's mostly just semantics. It will have hydro disc brakes and I plan to use it for road, gravel, and CX races. Eventually I will get a 2nd set of wheels so that I don't have to change tires to change my ride surface.

    Yeah, with seven the design in terms of ride characteristics, components and accessories that you work out with them is what guides the build.

    I’ve never regretted for a second buying my seven. Hoping you enjoy yours as much as I do mine!!!

    there are some Ultegra Di2 group sets on the net...excel sports says they have them in stock.

    Unfortunately our LBS (that we are part owners of) is having a tough time finding the available components from Shimano. We could order them from another retailer, but then lose out on the wholesale pricing.

    A friend just got his Seven (an Evergreen) and is totally in love. He's suddenly looking for hills to tackle!

    Yup! This should end up about midway between my Redline CX bike and my road bike...pretty much exactly where I've always said I'd like a dream bike to be.

    Slightly less aggressive than my road bike, but moreso than my CX.

    Love my Seven and bet you will love yours. Looking forward to seeing it!

    think of it as a piece of art and hang it on the wall until your parts come.......

    I like that! We'll likely leave it at the shop as a display.

    Well, I have a frame and assorted parts...just no complete bike until Shimano's Di2/hydraulic brake production can catch up.

    Stopped to see my baby this AM (did a shop ride, too, but was really there to fondle my frame, heh).
