Easy 40 before work to test the new bars. This is something I should've done long ago but I really wanted to buy into the whole flared bar trend. Being that I also went to a 44 from a 42, I need to shorten the stem by 10mm.
Going to set the bike up with fork cages and mount my eTrex to test during this weekend's 200k. I also have a Shutter Precision hub coming to lace into my 303s. Mostly because I need more light than the P-Tec puts out and need to race through the night.
Still not 100% on gearing. The route profiles are all over the place in different mapping programs. Everywhere from 11k - 18k. Might be worth figuring out a dingle cog just in case. I've been on a 40x18 with 700x48 tires and a 40x17 with 43c. Generally gets me around 16mph average around Bedminster, which is usually 800ish feet per 10 miles. Kansas is around 400-450.
