Defboob, how many miles have you had on those flo wheels? Curious how long that black coating typically lasts. I have h+son archetypes which I believe have a similar coating, but they're on a fixed gear which doesn't see much brake pad use.

Not sure if I posted this here, but if I see another specialized bike I might puke (personal taste).

Still sub-12. As pictured with the garmin 800 it weighs 11.97 lbs. With the enve/extralite tubulars (instead of the farsport/extralite clinchers pictured) it weighs between 11.25 and 11.33 lbs.
Last week I did a 130 mile (210 km) ride on it and yesterday was a 55 mile, 4000+ vertical foot ride. It's everything I've ever wanted in a bike. Climbs like a beast (sub 12 you'd figure that), handling is so stable and comfortable enough for 7+ hrs (and that's w/ the all carbon saddle).
As was mentioned before, staging isn't perfect (was in a rush), but the bike sure as hell is!
