Got a great deal on an awesome frame! Still need to lower down the stem and cut the tube. So far rides great. Trying out the Mavic R-Sys as a demo but leaning more towards some aero wheels. Not that super weenie. Sitting at 15.68 pounds. Enjoy!

Part list:

BMC teammachine SLR01 frameset 57cm
Pro Turnix carbon saddle
Pro Vibe 7s 44cm compact habdlebar
Pro Vibe Sprinter carbon stem
Dura Ace 9000 crankset 53-39 175mm
Ultegra Di2 grupo.
Planet X CNC brakeset
Mavic R-Sys wheelset with Vittoria Corsa SC's tires

Nice bike... I think unless you're going to slam that stem, you need to look for something different. There's actually not much point in having a super-massive stem waving about on the top of a relatively flexible steerer, and it looks odd too. If you can slam it, then it'll be great :)

agreed, that stem is sullying a very nice ride. Something slim and sleek would complete the package.

Agreed. New aero tubbies coming soon! Also stem and moving it down.

Thought you must have been sponsored by Shimano until I saw the Planet X brakes (would thoroughly recommend replacing for 9000's) and not sure about gumwalls (for a change) but that frame set rocks. Sweet!

I'm loving the bike till death! As soon as I hoped in it felt awesome! I'm switching wheels to some Profile Designs 58 Twenty Four's and they are wide, thinking that probably Planet X brakes dont adjust all the way. We'll see! Thanks

That is a lovely bike!

Not that I'm in a position to be critical, I'd much prefer the look of those wheels with just the 58/TwentyFour logo on and cut your stem down for a clean look.

very nice!

Just small change in configuration of your bike, but HUGE change in visual appearance. I really like Your bike now with stem down and new wheels. Enjoy it. Great bike.
