Cervelo R3 Build continues...

7900 Shifters and Brakes Arrive for R3
Went back to Cycling Concepts to finish the bike build, but could not get it all done as time ran out.  Could not leave work early today, and got to the shop late.  Sondre was already working on a bike when I got there, so he could not drop what he was doing to lend a hand.  So I mounted the shifters and brakes, cleaned the bars, and got the bike ready for new housing and cables. 
Dave's Bike Fit
While I was waiting, Dave and Dan were working on Dave's setup position to fix his left foot rotation angle.  They put shims in this shoes, and got his foot to track a bit better.  It facinates me how a few changes to your pedal can make such a big difference in your attach angles in the pedal stroke.  Dan broke out the laser to track Dave's knee position while pedaling.
Went back and Sondre installed all the cables, but did not have time to adjust the front and rear Derailleurs or Brakes.  I guess I have to wait until Wednesday...Maybe!
