Planet X Nanolight part 2






Starting to add all the components to the frame, and it is turning out quite nice. Campagnolo is a little different to set up than the typical sram and shimano stuff.


The Campy brakes are very smooth and effortless. They boost very good modulation, but seem to lack a bit of power.


  




There was a few tricky set ups on the Campy install. The front shifter cable was giving me problems as it was sticking on the inside of the shifter. After I fixed that problem it was weird adjusting the shifting on the front as campy uses multi index positions which is different then Sram or Shimano. The rear set up was a breeze and shifts are crisp and snappy. You can shift 2 or 3 gears at once and it only feels like one !!






The Campagnolo Eurus 2 way wheels are very sharp looking. These weigh in at 1525 grams or so. The bearings are super smooth and spin forever.



Overall I am happy with the build and now have to wait for some nicer weather to give it a good test ride. It is supposed to be around 6 degrees on Sunday so I might get out for a short ride.

Cheers !
