How difficult was it to remove the logos from the bars? Did you need to re-clear coat them afterwards?

no clearcoat needed. just abit of light wet-sanding following by body shop cutting paste and a rag to restore the gloss. obviously the key is not to sand through all of the lacquer :thumbup:

took about 20 mins.

Very nice, on the post shim I encourage you to get the proper WR Compositi seatpost. I only had problems on my XCr frame (creaking etc...) after trying two different shims. Finally bought the right post, no more issue.

While I agree with the headtube comment the bikes looks great and you've gotta go with what fits! Well done :!:

looks very classy

if you need black cable guides you should look for campagnolo mirage/veloce version
they are plastic but have metal thread inside
