  1. hello all,

    I was just wondering wich is better, replacing parts on my actual bike or simply buy a new one...???

    I own a Louis Garneau LG3, full 105 group, with 6061aluminium frame... maybe not the best on the market , but at least I coulf afford it and it still be able to make some chrismast gifts! ;-)

    I would not care to make such a guess, but don't ride it and it will never wear out.

    doh?

  8. Upgrading bit-by-bit is easier to slip past the "accountant" at home. Also it's good to work on your bike rather than getting other people to put it together. Teaches you a whole lot about it as well as being fun!
