She's here and she's oh so pretty. Here's a quick picture of her being built up at the shop! Added black bar tape over the white tape for added comfort. I love this bike. Super excited.

Can't seem to upload the picture because my file is too big. The photo was taken with an iPhone. What's the secret for uploading a pic? Thanks!

Upload your pictures to another image hosting site like imgur (or even twitter/facebook/instagram) and then embed the .jpg URL's.

Literally any change would get you below that magic number of 15 lbs. Ti bolts, de-badging cages, cutting down some of the steerer. Looks great.

That's the goal. A professional fit is coming. So I'll cut the steerer tube as well. And add some Ti Bolts to get it under the 15 lbs.

Hi,

Can you put up a spec list please? What type of wheels are you using? Could probably drop some more weight going to carbon tubulars if you haven't already.
