Hi, can you post a side view of your handlebars? I want to see the hood positioning since I have those bars.
Really like the bike by the way .

Jancouver,
Love the SuperSix. Looks like it came together well.
Here's a few pictures of my 09 Hi-Mod, 63 cm. Sorry, I don't have the best camera - I spent all my money on my bike.

I'm actually looking to get some better cages soon, maybe the Tacx. I just don't know if I want to go overboard with the carbons or stick with the plastic ones.

Unless you hate money, you've answered your own question i think. Carbon cages are stupid. Although, I spose they look cool... sometimes.

Go for Chris King Ti cages. You won't regret it.

I just grabbed a pair of eBay no-name carbon cages from China. They arrived today. They look great. Construction looks fine, and they're nice and light, if you're a weight weenie.

I'm just making the rounds on posting pictures of this bike...

Got the Cervelo built up this weekend, just in time for more rain. 
It's a 2008 Soloist Team (screaming discount at Excel Sports for a tiny blemish in the paint), done up in the Red group from my decapitated Bianchi. It's listed as a 54 but it feels a bit short. I may need a slightly longer stem. Or one less spacer. Or both. I think I'll ride it awhile and then decide.
I'll do a nicer shot outside when the sun's out. Maybe in March.

I finally have a road bike to post! Acquired this 2008 Cervelo Soloist Team (different paint than Caloso's though) on Saturday and I'm pretty excited about it. I think it's pretty much stock with the Shimano wheels, FSA cranks and Ultegra shifters but it is plenty of bike for a n00b like me. Put about 60k on it over the weekend just to get a feel for it and I can't stop thinking about getting back out for more!
