Wanted to share my recent build. I acquired the frame in December of 2013 and acquired parts slowly over the following months. I also took some parts (mostly the groupset) off my CAAD10. I realize the spacers are hideous, but I'm slowly coming back from a torn muscle in my back so I need a less aggressive position at the moment. I'll post photos again when I cut the steerer.
The only plans for an upgrade are the saddle and maybe pedals. The romin is definitely on the heavy side.
Most importantly, the weight as pictured is 8.3kg. I should note that I also have a set of Reynolds 46's and carbon railed saddle that bring the weight down to 7.9KG. If I ever get around to it I'll post photos with that setup.
