Stunning!!!!
Have you thought about just turning the handlebar up slighly so the drop matches the slope of the downtube?
How do the wheels ride? I'm looking at a set of them. Tape or Glue?
I think you have one of the best bikes on this forum
Yes I will turn the handlebar upp slighly efter some testrides. In the picture bardrop and saddle to c-c bar is the only correct messurment.
The wheels are amazing! Super fast and do climb pretty sweet to = love them! Glue all the way
Thanks man!

Thanks for the Feedback on the wheels.
I think i will go with my gut and get the Enve's. I've wanted them for ages.
I'm a glue fan too. Only trouble is i now live in Dubai and three different bike shops will not glue. I normally glue my own but had some bad results over here with humidity etc. I'm not doing anything different than i would in the uk and i've never rolled a tub yet. I just can't get the front to stick over here. Rear is fine.
Anyway i don't want my ramblings to distract an awesome build.
Well done again.

Put some white Enve decals on but maybe black would look better, what you think?
Had my first ride on it a couple of days ago and DAMN this bike is amazing. Ok did't race it but put som tough intervals on it and could't not feel any flex or lost of power. Will test it properly at a 2week training camp at Calpe Spain with my team 16th -29th march and after that I will give a propper rewiew.
But if some one thinking of getting one JUST do it!

Really liking wheel decals on plain bikes like this. Enve, new HED, Shimano (DA 7900 style) really look fast. Reminds me of rallye car tyres with their bold branding. (Zipp's typeface is too playful for my taste).

Back to black. Especially the difference in size in the Enve logos make it look way to busy. Otherwise it's a great looking bike!
