Storck Scenario Build (Basically) Complete w/ Pics

First of all, I would like to thank all of the BF members who helped me with this build. I posted several questions over the course of this project and would like to thank all who replied. I couldn't have completed it without your help. This was my first complete build and it was super easy with all of your input. Here are the specs for what I finally put together....

Frame: Storck Scenario C1.1 55cm
ForK: Storck Stiletto Aero
Shifters: DA 7700
Brakes: DA 7700
Crank: FSA Carbon Pro Compact 50/34
BB: FSA Platinum Pro ISIS
Front Derailleur: DA 7700 Braze On
Rear Derailleur: DA 7700
Cassette: DA 12/27
Chain: DA 9 speed
Seatpost: Thomson Elite Setback
Saddle: Specialized Avatar BG 143cm
Handlebar: Profile Design (upgrading to Deda Newton in a few weeks)
Stem: Profile H20 (upgrading to Thomson X2 in a few weeks)
Wheels: MG DT Swiss RR1.1 w/ Speedcific Hubs (radial front, 2x/3x rear) all black
Tires: Michelin Carbon
Pedals: Look Keo Sprint

I bought just about everything slightly used and it was really a super cheap bike comsidering what I put together. I dont know that i will ever buy another new bike again....This was a ton cheaper and alot of fun....and 100% custom to what I wanted.

All in all, the build went VERY smoothly. I took the bike to the shop yesterday and had them shorten the chain and work on the front derailleur. I decided that ruining a good chain wasnt worth the 5 bucks saved to do it myself, and I wasnt happy with my shifting and was out of ideas on the compact. They did a good job on both and all at the shop were impressed with the setup.

Other than that, I cant wait to get the stem and bars swapped out, so that it will be my full on dream bike!

Here are a few pics....I will post some more later on, but these are the best overall. If anyone wants to see any particulars, let me know.
