Thank you all!
I must say this is by far the most comfortable bike I ever ridden (including Giant,Trek, Cervelo)
The new Tarmac is stiff, comfortable and also seems more quite.....! In the past I've read and informed the SL4 is not very comfortable and some riders (even pro's) complained for that I did not notice anything like it in the new model.
I am also very pleased with the matte paint since its very durable and cleaning is very easy. The build quality is awesome and the ceramic speed bearings in the BB rolling my shimano DA cranks without any force. It was an expensive frame but its worth every euro I paid....

Thanks for the answer! I'm 180cm and am currently on a 54cm Allez, so I believe a 54cm Tarmac will suit me.
Just to doublecheck, the distance I was asking for was the center of the bottom bracket to the top of the saddle. 92cm seems really long for someone who is 178cm. I have around 76cm.....

Great build! I think you can get that Edge 1000 further away from the stem such that you can make it more aero with a K-Edge XL. Hard to tell though. My default Garmin mount wasn't as cramped by the stem as yours appears to be. At $35 or so, might be worth a shot.
Yes in the beginning it was a little awkward to have the edge in this position.After a while I liked it since it's closer and the small tilt provides less sun reflections...The aero penalty is minor since I know by changing my body position the results in aero are massive compared the position to the edge or how the cables are crossed etc...
The most nice feature is the remote control I placed in the drops and I never had to touch the screen and buttons again! very convivient for hard efforts and no more fingerprints in the screen!

Beautiful built, I'm curious if you get any noise from the adapters för 24mm, I'm on a new venge and from time to time getting some noise from the crank. Looking into the praxis solution but haven't decided if I want to pay for that so I will try to get the LSB put it in under warranty.
