Ultegra components

I have a similar 105/Ultegra question. My current ride has an older 105 drive train (1999). The rear "brifter" has failed and I would just happened to luck into acquiring a new set of 6700 levers. I'…

What's your commuter ride?

I have gone the fixed route for my commuter. I live about 40 miles from the job so the first part of my trek is a train ride from the suburbs into South Station in Boston. I have an old Schwinn Tempo…
