Finally got around to it.........
Being that I haven't had much free time, I finally unpacked and began building it. Actually, it's done, minus the bar tape. The LBS did not have the color I wanted and so I will have to wait till Thursday. Here you go....
Oh yeah.. I needed one brake cable and I guess the LBS forgot to put up the sign: "Grab your Ankles as you walk inn." $7 for just one cable
, but I really wanted to get it done before something else came up.

very nice beautiful paint and decals. I think everyone uses black now. black frames, forks, components, cable housing, seats, tape, tires, everything is black or carbon colored.
I would consider blue, it might make that little blue swirl on the decals stand out more

I like the way this one thinks. Blue bar tape would take this from 'beauty' to 'masterpiece.' I found blue cork tape at my LBS. Currently on my red and white 1967 Schwinn Varsity (America! F!#$ yeah!). If you can't find any locally, you may have to order online.

I was thinking just plain old white vinyl tape. I'll check it our now and see about ordering some.

The frame size is 62cm C-t-C with a 59cm TT. It's probably the largest size I can ride comfortably. I hung my MX Leaders "old" 8 Speed Chorus group on it and it rides just silky smooth.
I don't think so as it does not have a decal indicating it. If it's not, it's still a great looking paint job.

I put this Fizik Microtex in white on my Ferrari-red Nishiki - very classic looking tape and quite comfy and is resisting stain well.
Incredible paint on that Pinny. I've changed my mind: I will take that bike!
