How do you like the ceramic Rotor BB cubs? I have the steel currently installed with my 3D+ but was thinking to swap to the red ceramic.
Nice build!

But why is the saddle pointing down so much?

Don't hurry for reducing the weight, ride it and work on your position. The handlebars with levers pointing up and saddle down doesn't do well to the whole image of this bike ;-)

OK, from home it works. I can see bigger picture now.
Really nice bike. I was not able to see it from office due to firewall :-)
I like the way it is built.

Actually I still have the steel Rotor BB on my 1st bike with Rotor 3D+ Crank. (Still riding it since 2013)

I can't really tell the different between two of them.
just ride my dogma around 200km (125mile).
Sorry can't give you any feedback.
other reason will be should be factor in as well, example; wheels, weight, tyres and frame geometry and etc.

Weight wise : Steel at 83g and Ceramic at 84g from my scale. (diff only 1g or may be not)

But the Red BB really look nice compare to black BB.

Hope this will help you....

Thanks for the feedback... :D

I can't adjust the handler bar angle because of my handler bar is integrated with stem.
Been riding couples of times, Yes, you are right I should work on my position more after riding it more.
May be I shall adjust the levers a little lower.

For the saddle, I like to point a little down to push me forward..
I don't know why, But I like the position while I'm climbing.
I'm more a climber..... :D
