Polished Cannondale Six13

I love this bike. I'm curious to how it rides. Is it comfortable? Or, stiff and brutal?

I just wanna share the result of my project with you and say thanks to The Green Flame for the great inspiration.
After at least 36h sanding and polishing plus couple of hours building I would say: Succeeded! I love it!
I will do some better pics outside when the weather has changed.
Some data:
2005 Cannondale Six13, size 54, hand polished
SRAM Red shifter, front and rear derailleur
REVL "The Hive" carbon brakes
Tune stem
Easton SLX3 bar
Thomson Masterpiece seat post
Tune seat post binder
SLR Kit Carbonio Flow saddle
Cannondale Immix bottle cages
Cannondale Hollowgram, hand polished
Rotor NoQ chain rings, 52/36
KMC X10 SL chain
Speedplay X1 pedals
Wheels built by myself with BHS hubs, Reynolds clincher Rims and DT Swiss spokes. 20/24 and 16:8 on the back
Conti GP4000S tires
At least about 6.7kg
Maybe I will unpaint the shifters as well and put a Tune Speedneedle an top. But for now I'm very happy with it.

Wow! That is just beautiful. Time well spent. I especially like how the cranks go together with the frame.
I'd definitely sand the shifters, but either way, nice work!

Hello and WOW. Am I ever glad i finally registered and found this thread. I own a six13 and have always contemplated doing something like this but never had the balls to attempt it. I was just about to sell the bike today but started to have second thoughts after taking it out for a 2 hour spin. No way will I sell it now knowing what I can try to transform it into! Thx weight weenies.
