WTB: Crankset w/chainrings, derailer and shifters...
I have a commuter bike and I'd like to upgrade the crankset and derailer to something more "interesting". I see these Campys up for sale on FB and think they look sufficiently well-made. So, am open to that or Colnago or ? I am going to need to replace the shifters and rear derailer too. While I am at it, I may as well start looking for some wheels too. 700c. Shoot me a message here or text me if you prefer at three 12, six one nine, 7 one three nine. Thanks.See More
"Thanks Matt M 18.5KM - Thanks for the update on E->S too. "
"How about reverse-routing this...start in Illinois and heading north. Do a round trip? I am staring to plan a ride myself. I'd like to drive west to pick up Jane Addams, head north to Badger trail and then ?"
"I have one of these and they are awesome. Sure beats riding in snow and slush."
"Thanks Mr. Burgundy. I sent a friend request so we can contact each other. Am interested. "

"Thanks - I rode it up from Forest Glen to north of Dempster (?) and back. No water. Nice ride. I wonder if I can take this to Milwaukee. I am not a fan of the stop and go though.
Anyway, thanks for the feedback. "
"thanks-where would you put-in if you could, above Forest Glen Ave if you are driving to the trail?"
"Anybody have an update on the trail? I'd heard that it was flooded."
