I guess this is as good a time as any to start a build thread. A few weeks ago, in my first race of the season (and my career, so to speak), I was crashed out and cracked my Supersix Hi-mod. Due to injury, I felt it was as good a time as any to change group sets as well. Super excited for this build. Looking at probably high 13s low 14s.

Build list
Frame Pink S-works Tarmac SL4 (ordered today)
Seatpost S-Works
Shifters Record 11 (prospective)
F and R Mech Record 11 (prospective
Casette Chorus (prospective)
Chain KMC x11sl
Crankset Hollowgram SiSl + stronglight CT2 53/39 (in hand)
Pedals Speedplay Zero Ti (in hand, but may change as the colors won't match. So vain am I)
Stem probably Zipp Service course, unless I need a 90 in which case it will remain a 3T team
Handlebars Zipp SL (in hand)
Tape Lizardskins
Bottle Cages Profile designs Karbon Kage (in hand)
Saddle Tune Speedneedle Alcantara (in hand)
Wheels Zipp FC 606T (in hand) and Easton EA90aero (in hand)
Tires Vittoria Corsa Evo 23 tubulars Vittoria Corsa Evo 25 clinchers
Skewers Tune DC14

Please remove the yellow "warning your bike will explode" sticker. :wink:

Can you actually get in the drops? If so... damn... kudos!

Must've missed one of the stickers, thought I had them all. I can definitely get into the drops, though this is pre-official fit. I think it may also be the angle of the picture that makes it look so aggressive.

HOT DAMN THAT'S HOT!!!

but: remove yellow sticker; trim steerer once you've found the fit; recycle that box.
