Well, last month, I crashed my Ruby. The rider behind plowed into me, and his pedal (I think) gouged/damaged my downtube. Shoot, concrete is hard . Well, my elbow is all healed up, and my crash replacement is in so I picked it up Friday, and it went on it's maiden voyage yesterday. It's a Ruby, but the Expert this time (had the entry level Elite). I had the store transfer my stuff over to it, and I replaced the damaged 105 shifters with Ultregra SL.


Excuse the crappy picture, it was a quick grab-shot after it's first ride.

I had ridden it on the damaged Aspide saddle, then bought the Bontrager on the way home. I guess I have 90 days to see if it works for me; I will post what I find out in either the hated or loved saddles. Hope I like it, it is a very nice looking saddle.
