My RLT 9 aluminum in my favorite of the paint schemes. I built it from the frame up, but it's not wildly different from an Ultegra hydro Niner build. I've had a great first year with this bike, taking on some of the gravel grinders in Northern CA and just putting in a lot of miles on road and trail.

Here's my baby. I think I'm going to red cork and yellow casing.

I have a set in a box in my closet and your bike gives me some ideas...

Snuck in a 20 mile ride in Northern Ohio in December! Just a few rides in on my recent Salsa Chili Con Crosso build, thought I'd stop for a quick photo to post here.

I'm fascinated by the Infinity seat, but haven't had the, um... cojones, to try one out. It works well enough for you on the rough stuff (by which I mean the roadway, not your undercarriage!)?

Much better than "well enough"... it's the most comfortable saddle I've ever ridden.
