Bikes: Trek 1500 SLR DI2 Giant Kronos SRAM Rival

My 07 Trek SLR in Disco livery has an update. It's now running a 6770 groupset, full Bontrager Saddle, Seat post, handlebars, wheels, etc... The 6770 DI2 still needs to be updated for multi-shift so its a bit annoying at present but its ridable. I also need a new stem, this ones way to short and it's not a Bontrager. I'm thinking a slightly newer Bontager stem would do the trick and keep it in the family. What I am loving about this bike the most now is the perfectly formed unobstructed triangles. This is why the 54 is the perfect size of bike (rider aside). The aesthetics are perfect, the frame forms perfect triangles. Triangles are the most pleasing shape in the world.I'm still deciding if I want silver or blue cages. In the short term I might just cut the steerer tube down tomorrow and paint the stem black

We've completed the project so far... Take a $250 bike add $250 in parts and have an aluminum bike that most people would pay $2000-$2500 for on a shop floor.
