Not mine but....
The Pearl white/Black one is full SRAM Red, 14 pounds, 5 ounces. Non rolling billboard. Just subtle and clean. Sorry pictures are a bit dark and blurry. Whatcha think?
The black and red one is my personal bike.

Have not posted my ride for a while. Only change I have made recently is that I removed all the Reynolds stickers off of the wheels. This has been a great bike. I didn't really build it to be hot or not, but just to work well and it has treated me pretty darn good this season!
Enjoy.
Enjoy.
