Ternie is now on Steroids!

Decided to enhance Ternie's performance by modifying some of its components. I must say that I'm very happy with the enhancements. Ride experience is so much better and speed performance increased by almost 100%! 

Before Modification





After Modification




Here's what I did...



Replaced the stock cassette with the SRAM PG950 speed cassette and SRAM Chain PC 951 9 speed


Replaced the BB and Crankset with the Shimano 105 5700 BB and Shimano 105 5700 Crankset 53/39T to enhance the speed performance.



Wheel Sport Smart 1.0 406 rims (with new tyres and tubes) to enhance speed and Shimano Deore M590 V-Brake and Lever to improve braking performance.


T-one Bricko ii RS Grips were also installed.


Replaced the stock seat with the RIDO R2 seat. Very comfortable.



And finally, replaced the super heavy stock seat pole with the KCNC Ti Pro Lite 33.9 x 550mm seat pole. Paddle was also replaced with a MKS removable paddle.
