Wow you only very recently ordered it? I had to wait 16 weeks for mine, it's been the longest 16 weeks of my life!

I thought I would update this with some new & better photos now that summer "should" be arriving soon.

The wheels have obviously been changed to Bora Ones since last May, also a longer (100mm) stem & an all black Fizik Arione R1 carbon rail saddle ................. oh & a stonking new 12-29 cassette (Chorus) :thumbup:

I'm hoping to ride it more in the coming months :-)

So nice! Big fan of the colour scheme, must be a pleasure to look down whilst riding and see that beautiful painted top tube. Is the Zipp stem -17?

Beautiful bike. I also have a C60 - all white frame. I am thinking about getting the Zipp SL88 bars that you have. I'm looking for a longer reach bar with a traditional bend, but something that still has a nice flat transition from the tops to the hoods....how do you like them?

Thanks TSJ, I do like my Zipp bars very much, like you say, it has a more "natural" transition from bar to hood.
It's a tad more comfier than the Deda Shallow bars on my other bikes :D

P.S Have you a link to your White C60? Would like to see it please!

Cheers
