I noticed that also afterwards, annoying! :D

The valve extenders are too long also, shorter ones are coming... ;)

Nice @Eurperg. Yes, 15mm extenders [emoji4]. How are you finding the 2015 Campy stuff? I've still not had an opportunity to ride it or install it. Soon though, on a friends bike.

Front shifting is noticeably improved, that's the biggest difference. Lever throw feels lighter and I think the cage also moves faster now. Rear shifting feels very precise also, but it's hard to differentiate what is caused by new cables, new chain, cassette, etc.. and what are the actual improvements in the groupset.

Yup, standard head tube for straight forks. I ordered a few things for it including the new eeBrakes, a pair of Fibre-Lyte chainrings and most important of all, some custom decals. I'll post pictures of which to put on once I get them in the next week or so. I'll also polish the frame and then re-brush it while I have the decals off. It's dull brushed right now whereas my Siena was more of a bright-brushed, which I liked a lot.

Other than that, I'm very pleasantly surprised at how well the Xicon rides. Part of me wants the T1 since I like to have "the best" but the Xicon just puts a smile on my face every time I go for a spin. The handling is just spot on and the ride is just sublime. Sure, it flexes compared to an S-Works Tarmac, but frame flex (or lack thereof) has to be one of the most overrated frame criteria there is. At least that's my opinion after having demo'd the S-Works Tarmac, putting 2,300 miles on the Parlee Z5 SLi, 15,000 on the Siena and now slightly under 1K on the Xicon with about 3 dozen races under the belts of the Parlee and Siena.

Here is my firefly with the wheels I always wanted - Chris King R45 28/24 laced to DT Swiss rims.

Upgraded the cranks to Power 2 Max. She rides real sweat.
