Shiny parts

Before school tonight I installed a few parts on the Axiom. No, that's not it, that's the Axis. 

After replacing the brake calipers, bars, tape, cables and housing I needed a set of wheels to finish the brakes and tune the gears. The spare set of 'cross tubulars were nearby so I thought "what the heck, wedge them in, it's just for a minute." Imagine my surprise when they fit. I'd taken the Deltas off and replaced them with the original side pull calipers to remove some weight, but a side effect is the increased space above the tire.



It's a bit tight here, but it could work on a dry day.
Oh yeah, and I swapped seats. How's it look?
Not to worry. The Deltas will be residing on the Phinney in short order along with a few of the parts I picked up at the swap.
