i think this is a great build, and the brown parts look nice.
non-deep-carbon-wheelset would be a great idea, just sold reynolds kom-rims, those would be perfect for this build.
regrettably hard to get!

Now I have two set-ups:
1) black and brown with Farsports carbon 38 mm wheels - weight 7.9 kg
2) white and silver with Campagnolo Zonda wheels - weight 8.2 kg

I had most of the components for the white version from the original set up, so only bought a new tape and upgraded the seatpost (now KCNC).
For the black one I bought the new wheels and 3T stem.
Planning to use first one mostly in summer and for races, and second one all other time.

I much more prefer the black version as it looks more brutal, but the white one is very positive.
Which one do you like more? =)

I like them both but the white tyres are too much...

They are not white. There are 2 white stripes on them :)

both look nice, but my vote goes to the black carbon wheels with brown. Unless maybe you get a silver wheelset and black tires on themm then the white bar/saddle would be perfect as well. Well done!

^ A Rotundo would be so on point!

I think what you've done with the bike (both brown/black and white/silver) is absolutely FANTASTIC! I'm a fan. :thumbup:
I'll have to say I'm digging the brown/black set up more.

And what you did with the bars where your stem's faceplate mounts? GENIUS!
What a great touch really, and the attention to detail!!

Wonderful, just wonderful.

Both awesome builds. I love the discipline of building two modern classics on he same platform. Well done.

How much did you pay for the road closure?

The brown one looks so fast it casts no shadows!
Well done on both versions - I appreciate a man who puts this type of effort in to getting things right and making a decision.
