Very nice! I'd like to see some bigger/close up shots. This frame would definitely be on my shortlist if I ever replace my Supersix.

Looks great, but defiantly need some scales this is WW after all.
How do the tyres feel/ride, was looking at these myself, but would like to know what they weigh. !!
