Ill come out of my lurk closest for my yearly post.
So I may have taking the aero thing a lil too far. Since it seems I'm becoming more of a breakaway rider, its worth it.

Awesome bike! My shop carries Jamis and I'm definitely a big fan of their bikes. I almost pulled the trigger on a Xenith Team for the race season but decided to go with a Fuji Altamira instead (better deal for me).

7500g as pictured with the garmin. I could cut another 600grams but I race in Jersey and cant think of a race I've done that has an incline longer then 30 seconds. I had to go to the Jamestown Classic to find a hill that took about 2mins to get over. If I really need light weight bike for a race, I take out my battle bike, my caad9.

My '10 S1. Nothing special. Boyd 58mm CC, Open Corsa CX's, compact Q rings on the stock Gossamer crank. I might splurge for a Stages 6700 crankset if I can sneak it past the wife

I was just gonna say that the crankset is out of place. That's not to say that it isn't perfectly functional, it's just not on par with the race-characteristics and quality of the rest of the build.
nice bike

Got a proper fit on Saturday. Mine was WAY off. Saddle was 1.5cm too low. Seat 1cm too forward. Bars a touch too high, cleats all wrong. Found out my 3T carbon seat post was developing a crack and replaced it before total failure. I was getting pain in my knees, middle of my shoulders, neck, and numb toes. ~5 hours later and it felt like a completely different bike. So much better, even just spinning around town. Best part? "You're way really flexible, your stem needs to go lower. You can slam it. Actually, if you can find a 1cm dust cap (caad10's have a 1.5cm) it will be even better." 
Forgot to take my tool roll off, and lazy to bust out a real camera. I have 2.5* of nose-down saddle tilt until I find a better saddle. I don't slide on this one at all, but I'm going back in to test a few over the next couple weeks to try and get it so it's horizontal. Fitter said it wasn't that big of a deal as long as I wasn't sliding forward when I sat up or if I take my hands off the hoods and support myself with my core/back. I don't and I can so... /shrug?

I own a small fleet of these that I rent out to travelling cyclists. I even ride the one that is my size from time to time. For the price, it is one of the best bikes out there, especially after you throw on a nice set of race wheels.
Here is my current race rig (the SuperSix, sorry about the action shot)

Did that require a BSA-BB30 adapter? If so, how is that working?
