Somebody might flame you for those components on that frame, but It won't be me. Those zipp wheels look kind a nice. If you really want another pair of wheels, then go classic (low profile tubular alloyrims. Mavic Reflex, Ambrosio or similar), og keep the style of performance and get a pair of DA C35. Maybe remove some of the stickers, so "Dura Ace" is the only graphics on the wheels.
No matter what, your bike looks really good. :thumbup:

The oven handle is disrupting the visual ;-) The DA and Zipp stuff as well ;-)

Yes, not a great photo sorry just thought I'd give people the opportunity to flame me for putting DA9000 on a Master.

I am looking at 202's or Reynolds Attacks, something of that nature to put on it but as its only going to be used on dry days that week is a long way off in the uk so I have a lot of time to consider my options

All good here. I was looking at the Enve's on Chris Kings, at least here they won't be as common as the Zipps.

I love it great to see a different kind of build that bike just looks like a blast to ride.

Ok, I'll bite. DA 9000 looks ridiculous on a classic Italian steel frame. 8)

I have an old Italian steel "restomod" myself, and I threw some de-stickered Reynolds R2 wheels on it. They use the same 32mm rim depth as the Attack. They're shallow enough to look classic, but the carbon still makes it look modern. Also, the V-shape goes with the master better than the rounded 202.

Then again, no point in going for a more classic theme when you run that Battlestar Galactica looking groupset.
Long live the horizontal top tube, standard crankset, and Italian threaded bottom bracket.

I think battlestar Galactica is actually older than the original master

Which 1-1/8 to 1" shim did you use with the superleggero ? I was told by deda not to use the stem with a 1" shim as it wasn't approved and to use another of there stems.

It has the syntace shim in there, the thomson one is too long. I'm probably going to put a cyrano stem on it when they come out. I tried a zero 100 but it was too bulky.
