No not really, It was about 5 years ago, but I think when I put those special 100th TDF year edition michelin pro race tyres on the bike, new black bartape (rather than white) I also scored the seatpost and took a photo.

I think it's one of the first photo's I ever took of any bike I owned since 1982?

I usually have the nose of the saddle 9-10cm behind the BB.

It does look wrong in the photo though.

EDITh yeah it was custom made for me also, has a 60cm top tube, 62cm c-c seat tube, steeper seat tube angle and higher BB for the 180mm cranks. I cant remember the headtube length but with no spacers I have a 13-14cm drop. I am 195cm tall.
