Either the ground is sloped or someone did an awful job at laying/leveling the cinder blocks of that building.

lol hopefully the ground is sloped, and the camera was either tilted to match the ground, or it was rotated and cropped after the fact to make the bike look level. That's probably why the bike is against that concrete wheel stop.

Celeste bar tape would look pretty sweet now that you mention it. Push the norms!

My road bikes
Here are my two, 2013 Specialized Roubaix SL4 Compact and 2009 Felt F95 team issue. The Felt just has a Fizik Pave seat, and the Roubaix has a set of hand made wheels from a LBS.

I got my 1st(Red) Allez early this year, I loved it so much I bought a 2nd(black).
My red is set up as a triple, it my recovery/rehab bike, & my black it a double/compact. Its getting a SRAM red crankset installed so its ready to go as soon as my knee is strong enough.
I'm still working my way back to standard gearing.

Purchased today on local craiglist for $100. Picture was taken after cleaning and stem adjustment. Sora 3x8. If I am not mistaken the fork is carbon with aluminum steerer. Reasonably light weight.
