At last the bike is done and ready. I know it is a little dirty, and not all dialed in yet, but i hope you guys and girls get the idea.
I have painted the frame myself, one more time(Next time i want a brand new frame :D) And have spend so many hours sanding and painting, that i almost got sad. Now it is nearly ready to ride.
New things are: Complete 11s SR (still the old Rotor crankset though)
Zipp 606 wheelset for racing.
Mavic cd OP on Campy Record hubs for training.
Arione k1.
NOS 3T Less xl traditional bend handlebar
110mm 3T arx team stem
and a couple of small things.

I am very happy with this bike, and it still rides like new i think, even though it's a old timer now.

Fine piece of art.
Looks as good as new, definitely a keeper :)

How about posting better pics of the custom paint job?

Cheers!

I need to send my SystemSix to you so you can give it a refresh. :) Well done.

Congratulations. What you've ended up with there is a wonderful looking bike. For me it's the nicest Dale I've seen. Different and original with that choice of colour. More and better pics needed.
