What a stressful day yesterday. On Wednesday, I finally got the Ascent Aeroo handlebars + Anaconda stem I had been waiting for the whole winter, just in time for the race season. So then I visited the local bike shop and they were able to swap the cockpit and do the routing by Friday. All good! Yesterday I was supposed to go and test the bike when around 10AM I get a mail from the company titled "PRODUCT RECALL / STOP USING ANACONDA STEMS IMMEDIATELY". Some carbon cracking hijincks apparently. Fuck fuck fuck, what will I do now? i ain't got the tools to undo internal routing and put my old stem+handlebar system back on. Contacted all LBS's in the area and one of them was willing to do it after their team development day. So it ended up being around 9:30 PM when it was finally ready, god bless. But extremely stressful waiting for it, I couldn't race my rim brake bike since it's over 0.5kg too light for UCI races, so that's out of the question. But looks like I'm good to go now. Too bad I won't be able to race with the Aeroo, would have been great for aero position.
