Pics to follow. I've mostly assembled the bike - and at 61cm most of my carbon seatpost isn't showing. I have to figure out how to install and adjust the Rival brifters and the cables / bar tape are not installed. Her weight including the tape/cables and LOOK pedals came out to 16.75 lbs. That makes her 4 lbs lighter than my next two lighest bikes (titanium & old school carbon).
I've got some silver bar tape and new 700x23 tires w/light gray stripe to complete the color scheme. Currently she is pure black stealth.

I'll cut the steer tube after some time getting used to the bike.

I like it in all black but I'd be afraid to park in next to unsuspecting innocent bikes.

Ah, the stealth bike. Very nice looking build. Next up a ride report?

Great bike. I love the lack of decals or other markings. I've only seen a couple "live" on the street.
