I'm hoping the next gen campy EPS they will work on getting the battery smaller.. and have heard different opinions on speed.. is it really faster then mechanical SR11

Hi! Beautiful bike! Could I ask which frame size you are running, and how high your saddle sits measured from the BB?
Thanks!

Thanks! A lot like me then. My next bike will be a Look 695, but can't decide between frame size M and L.... I am almost always in the position that I "fall between" Medium and Large bikes, but have tended to choose the smaller one on my last bikes. Tempted to go for the bigger one now! Just a little doubtful about the 172mm Headtube on the size L...

Remember there isn't need for headset cap for Look695. Normally headset cap increase headtube lenght 15mm.

No that kind of top cap or whatever it's called doesn't come with 695. There's just that rubber dust cover. But even if you cut the steerer tube with the tool that comes with frame there isn't proper stem slammage. There is still something like 1,5cm cap there.

Hello Tumppi, Awesome build! I am building up the identical bike right now, same color, and going with EPS. My question is how did you manage to route the Front and Rear Derailleur wires over the bottom bracket? It seems as if there is something blocking it if I try to pass a cable inside the frame but over the metal bottom bracket housing. thanks for your help.
