My mechanic mounted the Shimano junction box undeneath my Garmin mount and it looked significantly better than underneath the stem.

This, I can try, thanks.
Fizik vento solocush tacky used to be my favorite bar tape. It is not anymore. This is after less than 1000km of use:

Very nice... and about the bartape - can't you get it tighter around the handlebar. Might work better against this drama ?

Fantastic build, congrats!
Just ordered my own Alpe d'Huez 01 frameset, should be here in a couple of weeks
How do you like the Time "quickset" headset system? Does the headset cover and spacers stay in place even though there is no real compression cap+plug keeping them nice and tight?

Time quickset is used by Time since many years as a solution that will not put stress to the steerer tube (Luescher had commented on that as a more advanced, more well thought design). It just works and you won't have any issues with headset cover and spacers. The cover is actually an alu tube with carbon camp that also helps to protect steerer tube from overtighting stem bolts. In general everything is extremely well engineered and manufactured, you will see by yourself. Follow the instructions and you will be ok.

No, I just sold the white one and I am riding on a black SMP Composit carbon since early September. I may post new photos in a few days.
BTW the saddle on the last photo is a bpeople unica (b for selle Bassano) that I bought used for like 1/3 of its MSRP. It is a full carbon-leather work of art really, very light (118gr weighted), very strong (in contrast to the Berk lupina I had before), and very comfortble with a profile similar to SMP, just less pronounced. I will keep it as a backup. Its only drawback is its short rails.

Cheers for that bike, it's awesome!
As a Time follower, and having one at home, I'm looking for that frame in rim brake version for the next couple of months.
I think that Time is like Bentley in cars. Not the faster, not the lightest, but Bentley it's Bentley. Well, I think the same from Time.
