Look KG-171 Team
Just put this together for the new year. Horribly cross-chained in the photo, apparently the engine still needs to get over the Christmas/New Year reveling period.

I should be able to raise the the seatpost a little in the future as I get some flexibility back in over the next few weeks but still, that post does look a little chunky and the variable setback I just don't see the point of for me at least. I've an alu post I may put on down the line once I've given it a few miles in it's current setup.

My first road bike I've bought new. It's not a 10, but for the money and getting back into road riding, I like it!

I just went from this,
Dawes lightning DLX. It served me well for 3500 miles since May. The only Problem I ever had was a nasty rock taco'd my rear wheel so I replaced 'em with the zerolites. It was a fine machine to get me started but the time has come to upgrade!
Enter 2011 Supersix Ultegra. She's still at the LBS this evening awaiting a tune-up. I cant wait to get it on the road!!!

just picked this up today to replace my Trek 2.1. The LBS took care of finding a "buddy" for me. Stock Rival build.
