I like it. The orange on front/black in rear looks good. Sets it apart from all the black/black and black/white bikes. Nice touch with the orange Mavic logos. The more I look at it the more I like it. I'm going with hot. Good work.

Nice to see another SL owner here! Actually, when I built it, I took off all the 105 stuff and replaced them with the Ultegra 6800 stuff from my old frame, withthe exception of the 6700 brakes I'm using. Saddle and bars were also swapped out along with the stem. I love this frame! You should post yours as well!

How to make it hot? I really don't like plain black and white bikes, but this was less than half of costs and had zero miles on it so I had to take it and couldn't pass the deal by.
The question is what would you do to make it hot? I was thinking about maybe some type of decal on the seat tube to add some color or maybe a tribal decal down the center? I could change the seat bar tape and pedals, but I was hoping to do something a bit more inventive if possible. Any suggestions?
