My Look 585 is now ready to ride, just picked it up from the shop. I was supposed to have time to ride it but they were 2 hours late in getting it built. So I will post pics at about 9pm. The build is full Dura Ace, Easton EC90 seatpost, EC70 Wing Bars, Ascent Wheels, Deda Stem and Bar Tape, Toupe Saddle.

Total weight for XXL is 15.71lbs:D

Geeze, I dont want Tiffanie to break out the whip so here they are.:eek:

I like the red accents on the bike, like the Ti Salsa Skewers

The Deda Newton Stem is the matching colors of the bike with red black and silver

Hi Sean,

I definitely like the red accents. I agree with the red tires but the red valve caps have to go. :p

I still have a 2 inch drop, and I am not flexable. Thats the downside of being 6'3.

Thanks everybody. Ill be heading out in a bit for the maiden voyage. I will be making a few adjustments over the next few weeks. Mainly Ill be making adjustments around the stem and the spacers. Gotta see how my back feels and compare the set up to the Madone.
