Looks great. I would de-sticker the wheels to leave just one set of labels as it detracts from the frame.

Is that the final saddle-bar drop?

^no it´s not a final position at all.

Everythig else is ready but i´m having a hard time finding protective cable housing for integratedrear brake cable guide. I think i´m going to use my Planet-X Guru wheels with this build.

Even one of ours SBT´s approves.

It was looking so good with the dura ace wheels, then you ruined it with some planet flex ones! Is that your final wheelset choice?

Would have looked awesome with a matching red stem! Undecaled wheels would bring it up a notch as well. But a truly beautiful machine already :roll:
