That is so spot on. Classic proportions. The record sq taper carbon crank is killer!

Looks great M4k1, really nice build with the Ambrosio's, Elite cages and all matching 2004 Record groupset. What bars did you use? Can we see a before and after picture?

here you go. was going for a early 2000s probike look, but 10s instead of 9s.
really loved the setup, but my hands never got along very well with the 7800 hoods, so when i got the chance (the record groupset came with a time vxrs that i bought) i decided to give its try. and my hands really like the 10s ergo powers more.
handlebars are deda 215 shallow

No doubt it rides nicely with either build.
Am I the only one here who thinks the wheelset looks better if swapped between builds?
(That is, it would enhance the appearance of the Dura Ace setup...and vice versa.)

Lovely C40, what size is it?

I've recently given my C40 a overhaul and refresh. New paint by Cromaworks in Sheffield and a new Chorus groupset. Really pleased with it.
