OK, sunny-day outdoor pics of the mostly-done build:
From the back:
Cockpit:
Staring you down, one eye at a time:
Very clean DO treament here, and love that almost-iridescent purple paint:
Drive train, mix-and-match style:
As y'all can see, switched up the build plan a bit with the 8sp Campy Chorus/Record RD, Ergos, and wheels + Centaur dual pivots.
Still got the 180mm DA cranks and braze-on tricolor FD. Need some track pedals. This setup may be a pedal strike risk, as BB is quite low.
Deda bars and a Nitto Pearl out front. Question: yellow Newbaum's, purple Newbaum's, yellow Fizik...?
Syncros Ti post and Brooks Pro up top, though may have to swap the saddle for rearward adjustment. Handsome saddle, but...
Think I might swap the blue Schwalbes for black/tan Veloflex Masters currently in the mail or the Conti GP4000s I have on another wheelset.
Seems to be shaping up alright.
