The million dollar question; how is the braking?

If the question remains unanswered, we will know it wasn't that good.

Not only the braking, but how's the shifting? That cable routing is certainly not optimal for mechanical shifting.

Cool! That paintjob makes it much clearer how special the design of the down tube is. How's the ride on it btw? Haven't heard anything about the comfort of it.

I know it is top, latest techno, fast and all, I am just having a hard time liking this. It lacks finesse, purity as a frameset/bike to my eyes. It's almost too much...call me old fashion I guess.

headtube looks tall for a 54.

Looks great.

Aside from the gullwing handlebars, I think this is a beautiful bike. With out the graphics you can see the lines on the frame better which I feel is an improvement. And even though I don't think the gull-wing bars are all that elegant looking, I do applaud Chris and Co. for putting the engineering ahead of the marketing.

Let us know what you think of it. I'm eager to hear someone's in-depth impressions on what living with the bike is like.

As a side note, did you build it up or did the bike shop build it for you?

Nice.. Lack of large spacers really helps
