I really like the frameset. The location where you shot the picture in the first post was a great choice as well. Are you planning to mask off or remove decals from things to match the yellow? the seatpost already stands out with its red stripe. I like that you listed all the weights as well.

Thanks Euph, i did put some effort in this (my first) build! About the seatpost i will sand it down so it will have the same look as the saddle but i run out of sandpapper 400 :evil: I rode 20k each way on my old Cx Singlespeed bike with the frame in my backpack to make that shot :lol:

If it's your final saddle and front end setup it will look awesome once finished

Yes this is the end setup! Only seatpost will be all black. In the future i might change derailleurs and levers for the Sram Red ones.

Nice,

good proportions

I like how you've got your levers adjusted on the bars, makes sense to have flat transition on the tops and the levers are easily reachable from the drops
