Thanks everyone. Once it gets nice out, I'll update some photos. I didn't realize my post slipped a little prior to me taking the pics. I put some carbon paste and tightened down the clamp. Shouldn't happen anymore. :wink:

Well it's snowing and I was bored so I snapped a few photos. This is the final version. I've decided to go with a shorter stem.

I love everything about this bike except the cabling at the front. It seems to just take away from such a clean build.

The internal routing has some sharper bends that don't work well with the Powercordz. Any bends, really, aren't good with Powercordz, so you need a little extra slack to "smooth out" the bend. It's ok shifting, but it would be better with regular cables. I'll keep them on as long as I can tolerate it, then I'll switch it out for i-Links. Things would get tighter :thumbup:

The finish of the frame is just amazing.

It's so nice even if I usually don't like black bikes.

No shield for the bottom bracket, because of weight just or some special length on the spindle?

I really like your bike! Aside for the C'dale crankset. For some reason it does not seem to work well with the somewhat 'organic' styling of the frame.

Somehow I like the look of this frame even more than I like the look of your latest frame.

Stunning bike with nice camera work as well. What sort of equipment do you use to shoot?

These shots were taken with a Nikon D700 and Nikon 60mm micro lens. The pics from page 19 were taken with a 70-300 Tamron lens.
