Congrats man! Hope you are super happy with your new bike. Only nit-pic would be to my eye, bars need to be rotated down slightly. Other than that, nice build at a surprisingly good weight with those wheels.
Hey, Thanks! I am enjoying it! Honestly its just such an amazing bike to ride, it puts a huge smile on my face every time!! :D :D

On the bars, I agree, but it needs to be recabled (with lighter cable and more flexible) the bars are so small/narrow the cable does not like the tight bends. I'll be able to turn them down ever so slightly once I decide on cable.

Very nice bike.
Although I would prefer a blackbartape and lower rimmed wheels.
I love the wheels, but wish I had spent the extra money on Meilenstein's. Maybe eventually, but they are just so damn expensive I decided to go extra deep on the Enve's. I love the sound they make hammering on the flats whoosh whoosh!! Image

With regards to the bartape I have to scrub the yellow tape after every ride and its a pain in the ass, but it has grown on me in terms of looks. When I can get supacaz galaxy with yellow accents I'll switch back to black. :)
I have some Meilensteins i dont use, they have seen less than 1500km. Would look good on your bike. :)

I've been chatting with my local dealer and have been looking at the new revision... That said PM me a price :) I'm not sure they are in the budget, but maybe.

This is a beautiful build man. I'm sure you'll get the wheel choice worked out.

I bet the top end on this ride is completely exhilarating!

Today I was told that my F10 with eeBrakes could be ready this weekend.

I'm not on instagram yet but I'll post mine here. Went and saw my F10 this morning for the first time assembled. Well it's about 95%. I changed my riding position a few days ago so it will take some time dialing in the F10. I should be picking it up later today. I was completely stunned at first glance, and you are right, the eebrakes are an incredible compliment to this frameset!

I am interested in that Berk seat clamp to lighten up my F10. My only concern is if it is strong enough not to crack and to attach the saddle securely. Is this being supplied to Team Sky for testing? It looks like a well designed aftermarket product.

It's all downhill from here, except for the uphills.

Can only give you my personal experience with Berk's clamp. Had one for about 8 weeks with no issues to date. Buy another one for my other Pina...... very likely

Sweet ride. I feel the stem is slightly out of place.

I happened to stumble upon your photograph on the Pinarello tagboard. Thank you for volunteering for the TdC in San Diego! Nice build on your F10X.

Nice build! What's your height? Wondering about the choices between size 47 vs 50.

Great to see that the EE brakes work with size 50 frame. I had trouble installing them on my size 47 F8. Might need to consider size 50 for next build.
