they're ok.
on my '03 Ultimate, they are yellow.

This is a wonderful example of a classy and understated look. Nicely done...

^ Custom level 1 or 2?

not sure
 

not sure what model it is, it was a build from my lbs, if anyone knows I would like to know myself

It looks like a level 1, with straight seatstays. On the stock 1 & 2's (well, 2's in 2009, 1 & 2's in 2008) they had curved stays, and the level 2 has a slight diamond shape to the downtube - if I remember correctly. Looks though like the 'custom' part would be the stays, traditional geometry (i.e. non-compact), and the paint job... including paint on the fork (fork is probably a true temper alpha Q CS10 or 20). The overall geometry would technically be custom as well since all houseblend (stock) frames are compact.

EDIT: actually, I can't tell what fork that is. Not sure if it's an Alpha Q or not.

Either way... nice bike! :)

thanks
 

thanks, thats good to know. The fork is a Reynolds, thats some info I did get. I remember because when he told me, the only Reynolds I knew was the steel.

That's QUITE the "first" road bike.

thanks
 

I guess I have more money than sense. Ive had other bikes, I started MTB first and then I got a commuter both aluminum and I didnt want that for a road bike. I actually got a really good deal on it.

That is a fantastic first road bike.
Great choice!
Happy rides

this is my first road bike.

:thumb: [insert pic of grahny drooling here]

What are you building it up with? (please say campy and some kick ass wheels)

I'm sorry, you can stop drooling.

2010 Force (which just arrived in a box today - Thanks Psimet!)
Seat post and stem - Thomson in silver
Wheels (will be a bit delayed as the rear hubs are still in production), Alchemy ORC and ELF hubs in silver, Sapim CXRay spokes in silver, Kinlin 300 in black.

Not quite US$10k, but getting damn close in AUD$.

Ah, 2010 SRAM Force would be my 2nd choice, so the drooling will continue :) That's gonna be a really sweet bike, congrats.

I'll post a pic when I'm finished building it up. Got a bit excited when the frame pic arrived and had to post right away.
