So I got my new bike yesterday. Took it for a ride today, ooooo very nice. I'll post a full review after the Sundays Crit, but so far me likey. Yeah I know seat needs to be adjusted, etc. Will be going for a fitting session sometime this week.
(Sorry no white garage door) I am not responsible for color coordination of bartape and tires. Thats how it came. Personally I don't really care, but hey it looks nice.

This is my old bike before I put Force on it and swapped seatpost and saddle. Just wanted to show how it looks like with my racing wheels (still have them).

It's a medium size frame. The stem is 90mm with I think 0 degree rise. When I rode my 54 CAAD8 I had 90mm stem with 10 degree rise, but CAAD8 has shorter heat tube. Position on the new bike is somewhat more aggressive then on my CAAD8, but still feels very comfortable. I think out of all the bikes I rode, Specialized Allez 56, CAAD8 54, this one fits me the most.

Yeah they are pretty good, and something different from usual Treks/Specialized/Cervelos that you see all the time around here. :) There is a shop here in Irvine that sells Ridleys

Our team had a sponsor deal on Ridleys, but it was still out of my budget. I still have a non mainstream brand, but not as hot as a Ridley!
edit: Yours is the same size and color as my bike. Wanna trade? :D

The website lists the frame as 1.2kg. Other then that I don't know never bothered to weight it.
