I just finished this BMC build. It's a 2014 TeamMachine SLR01 Red 22. The only non-stock parts are the stem (3T Team Ltd 120mm) and the wheels (Reynolds Assault). It weighs 14.11 lbs with pedals (6400.19 grams). I know there is still room for improvement weight wise, but i am really please with how it turned out.
Image

This is my Specialized Crux Pro with Easton E90 tubulars. I don't have an exact weight on this one. The bike weighed 15.8lbs with Campagnolo Scirocco CX wheels, so it's a few hundred grams lighter now. This is mainly my gravel road racer. I don't actually do cyclocross.
Image

This is my Cannondale Synapse. It has Farsports 50mm Carbon wheels with Novatec hubs. It also has FSA plasma bars and an Adamo Attack saddle. The BMC will probably force this to go up for adoption (shhhh. Don't tell her).

If anyone wants pics from different angles, let me know.

Cheers :beerchug:

You posted the link to the page where the photo is, not to the photo itself.

The bike looks amazing by the way. I concider this myself these days, and this photo made me like it even more.

Thanks for the help Donic!

I am really happy with the way it turned out. Unfortunately there is still about 3ft of snow on the ground where i live, so i'll have to wait for the ride report.

All look good. I'm especially loving the Cannondale.

Nice builds, but there is way too much branding going on for me in the crux and cannondale.

Thank you!

It's just the stock Cannondale Seatpost. Nothing special.

Nice but not sure why you need the 'dale anymore with that BMC (this coming from a man with 7 bikes currently!).

Unusual that you have very different saddles on each bike?

Nice builds. Are they all the same size/fit/position?
