Very tastefully put together! Enve wheels, Campa EPS... wow!

And I guess it's true, it never rains in Southern California. Beautiful weather on your pictures!

Great looking build, well done. I would swap out the traditional bend bars for something with a better transition from the tops to the hoods, but no complaints otherwise :thumbup:

Hi kevosinn, in regards to the frame I am really happy with it. I had a couple of Magnesium Dogmas prior to it and I like this one just as much (and I really liked the Dogmas, but I broke the two). I also ride a Look 595 and a Cervelo S3 and the Cipollini feels better to me.

It picks up speed very easy on sprints and it is comfortable on long climbs.

The internal wiring is way too complicated and tends to rattle, but this was the first EPS they put together at the shop so I'll probably do something to the cables at some point. The ride quality and the craftsmanship make up for that though :wink:

As far as weight, it was just under 15 pounds before the carbon wheels so its probably over that now. I'll double check at the shop when I get time.

Thanks guys for looking at my post!!!
