Nice wheels.
The right shift lever looks a bit crooked, and the cable housing for the rear derailleur looks a smidge too short. You might experience difficulties shifting to the smallest cog when the cable gets older or ride in cold weather which stiffens up the housing.
I'd leave the aerobar tops bartapeless.
How's your chain tension in small/small? Looks like the rd could bottom out.

The lever might look funky because I was adjusting rear derailleur for new wheel and I also have the break release botton pressed.
I've got an 11-32 cassette and its the limit for my chorus setup. I had the chain a bit looser but when I was in less tens cogs the chain would jump up and down a hit the frame.
I do not like to ride without tape. Its just way more confortable.
I'm thiking of getting a thinner lighter stem...
Hi all
I have a set of hope mono rs hubs 28/32h on kinlin x300 rims, I’m looking to change rims. I’m 185cm tall and 87kg. Is there any reason not to use 45mm Carbon rims from light bicycle or farsports? Or because they are 28/32h is it best to go with a alloy rim?
Many thanks
Wayne

Because the brake pads of my dt swiss rc55 spline are almost worn out, I was looking for other rims. The bike shop made contact with DT swiss and they can deliver a set of the same rims for a price of 370euro. So I can swap the hubs and spokes in to the new ones. What should you guys do, take that ones or buy next year newer models.

While you'll need to be careful you can extract that bearing by using an appropriately sized concrete anchor bolt. It expands inside the bearing and then you just knock it out from the opposite side.
You can find them for almost nothing at the hardware store. Make sure you get one that is just a little bit smaller than the inner diameter. Be it 15 or 17mm. 14 or 16mm anchor bolt should do the trick.
Heat is your friend if it's stubborn to come out.
