Very pretty bike, and great choice to not use a grotesque DA/Ultegra crankset.

I had to keep the lines of the bike clean. I couldn't do it with any of the Shimano Crank Sets.

First off: Congrats on going back and finishing school, that's excellent. Secondly, I think you made great choices in re-building the bike. Ultegra 6800 is fantastic, and the Belgium+ wheelset sounds like it will be perfect for the riding out there, albeit having less "bling" factor than the 3.4's.

You were saying...?!

No, I'm playing. It's a lovely looking bike.
Well done!

Clement Strada LGG 25 Black and Tan. Bought them last summer for the look, didn't expect much. I have already put 600 miles on them with no issues.

Yep the crank is not my first choice for looks. But the price and function is hard to beat.
