I hear you on the all silver part. Since the Soma is both fillet brazed and threadless, the Salsa works well.

And yes, I am that person - that's the bike above. The Alter was nice - but I ended up stripping the lower threads by my overzealous anxiousness at being at the track a few weeks ago when I was swapping out bullhorns to drops. Fortunately, I found a very well though of stem. But now I'm on the drops. It matches the bike pretty well.
