Thank you :thumbup: I wanted to strip the paint off the frame , but I do not want to void warranty, I have a Woodman seat post on the way, as well as a - 17 degree stem :D

very nice! I like the white spokes.

Not sure about the blue on red theme, but the bike looks awesome and the set up looks racy! Sweet!

I plan on building a set of wheels with crest 29 on AM hubs, hope they end up being light!

What chainring bolts are you using on that XX1 crank - did you get the originals anodized, or are they after-market?
