^ there's not a singleTi bike that looks better with decals on.
Take the Motobecane for example, it's stunning without the decals. |

He says he already knows that. Is there one matching component on the whole bike? I think we have a top notch e-bay build here..;)

they do not.
Net effect is that your position on the hoods would have the same amount of "drop" and give an angle to the levers that most people prefer. And you get a lower position in the drops when you want to get aero, and an overall better look. But whatever works for you. |
Even a lot of the pros have their sram levers pretty high up. That looks pretty extreme to me.

Here's my entry. Please excuse the aero bars. I have a tri next weekend.

The flip it comment is usually facetious. However, just looking at your photo, there's a reasonable case to be made that you should try flipping the stem downward, lowering the bars, then move the brake hoods up on the bars a bit.

Other than the funky shifter positioning, I think that is a solid looking bike. |
Looks like he might of focused on the wall? Yeah, a sharp bike deserves a sharp shot. ;)
