Very very nice... I have been thinking about getting one of these frames myself....

What size is yours, a Large?

Cheers,
Lig.

It says it's a Large size 55cm. If you check out the website http://www.lookcycle.com/695/695_geometries.pdf it will give you the exact measurements. I did a lot of homework and compared it to my Cervelo and the stack/reach were almost identical. There is absolutely no point in buying a bike (even on Black Friday) at a good price if its the wrong fit

Yeah thanks Rixter, I know I am an XXL but am struggling to find some good images of XXLs built up... I just wondered what size yours was for reference!

Anyhow I have now pulled the trigger and am looking forward to getting mine, hopefully this side of Xmas...

Cheers,
Lig.

Very nice Christmas gift to yourself. You will love it. Mine is a size L a in large. I have a 86.4cm inseam if that helps.

What colour did you go with? So many to chose from. Did you order Aero Light?

What are your thoughts on the ZED crankset?

I love the ZED 2 cranks. Super stuff and having 3 crank lengths in one crank arm is genius. I actually like the looks of the ZED 2 a bit better than the 3, but that's just a personal preference. It's very destinctive and a few of my friends have commented on them.

What's your thinking?

Do the pedal inserts make any noise?
