Have a similar build in the works via Project One. Was so excited to see your pics
Am going Ultegra 6870 di2 but with Duraace cranks and direct mount brakes. Same frame size and same Dnister a Matte Black/Viper red scheme.

It has a flat, rectangular profile, very similar to the look of the new integrated bar/stem from Bontrager (including red stripe). It is a few grams heavier than the current one, but looks awesome... But, I think my stem looks bad b/c its a 90mm [emoji13] .
Are you thinking of the bar/stem combo?
Nice bike OP!

Didn't read your quoted post close enough, sorry. I'll have to keep an eye out because I like that look too.
My SLR 8 should be here this week. I have a question on the build.
I may not have access to the fancy tool that you are supposed to use for evaluating the cable angle.
What is the correct position for the converter on the front derailleur (Should it be "On" or "Off")?

My SLR is due in a couple of days. Going with Campy, and will build over the next few months. The builds on this thread are so inspiring! Thanks for posting!
Realy nice bike!
I'm looking at getting a SLR as well with Ultegra (mechanical).
How do you like the Bontrager direct mount brakes? I can choose between Ultegra DM or the bontrager DM model.
How do they compare to regular Dura ace or Ultegra brakes?

I scanned the thread but didn't notice if you have the vapor coat option. That would explain the mass difference.

The tool comes with the front derailleur but if you won't have access to it I would think your lbs would have one. You could also check out the Shimano Dealer's manual for the derailleur for more info on the converter position: http://si.shimano.com/php/download.php?file=pdf/dm/DM-FD0002-04-ENG.pdf
