Thank's guys, my future plans are to just replace the seatpost with fizik cyrano R1 (maybe ~40g less then SLK) and rear derailleur with Chorus/Record/SR. Next season i will mount Veloflex Carbon tubulars instead of the Vittorias, the funny thing is that the Vittorias are still going strong after 3000km, even if significant part of the riding was on really crappy roads full of potholes and debris. I wonder how long they will last, there is still enough rubber even on the rear wheel.

Very very nice indeed. It looks very aggressive.

Much better in black and love the 'Celeste' accents on the cages/post and pedals... perfect!

Funny, I don't mind the Athena rear that much but the lack of trim on the front drives me a bit bonkers if it isn't set up just right.

Sweet ride!

ultyguy: Yeah, it's not ideal that way, but not really so annoying. I have set up the FD just right so there is no rub on the big ring whatever cassette sprocket i'm on (even if i don't cross chain and never ride big-big, i'm sometimes in 53-23 for short moments, but then immediately downshift to at least 53-21), on the small ring, there is no rub for sprockets 16-25, if i ever need to choose sprockets 12-15 with small ring front, all i need to do is to one click up on the FD lever (instead of 3 clicks for the full shift).
