Beautiful bike but explain to me the crank-set. To this old timer that still thinks all polished silver crank-sets are the pinnacle of beauty, what you have here is an eyesore. Help me understand what you like in it.
I still love a bike with shiny 7800 components. |

As a side note, where are you guys getting these "Leopard" blueish colored frames? When I look on the site, I am just seeing black/red

Here is my brand new 2012 S-Works Venge
The components were taken from my old tarmac race bike and added to this (thus the old dirty saddle). It's a 54cm with November 58mm clinchers and a Quarq PM. Full Red. I have yet to ride it outside due to snow on the ground. Just got it Tuesday. My Old Tarmac added for comparison... Enjoy! P.S. that S-Works leaning on the tree is very HOT. |

Nope. Stem alone kills it. Frame is cool I guess. Chain looks too long. Nice front brake cable.
Not even close, sorry. http://spookeaymarine.info/photos/war.jpg2http://spookeaymarine.info/photos/war2.jpg |

on a budget: new crankset (non shimano)
budget free: full campagnolo group |

If the reply was for me, I already have super record on my Colnago, I am waiting for the Ui2 upgrade kit, so the crankset has to be there.

Thanks for the comment, I am new to cycling, I had never been on a bike until March this year, I have to have my feet touch the ground, I am always worry I may fall, and the Pinarello size 54 is big, more like 56, that takes away some of the saddle height, but I am learning to get on and get off the bike without sitting in the saddle. The bar is a standard Most bar with integrated stem, I agree with you on the wheels, I may find something else when the budge allows.

there are countless cranksets that would work just fine with ultegra di2 without looking miserable in the process. that said, ultegra di2 derailleurs are ugly too.

I know, I like the Most crankset for the look, but I am worry about the comparability with the Ui2 system.
2. it is not "ui2" the d does not stand for dura-ace. dura ace wasnt even the first di2 group: http://www.disraeligears.co.uk/Site/...6-filtered.jpg 3. enough babble. show us the super record :) |

Need to flip the stem as well and flatten out the handlebar stem angle. Great bike though, I covet.

This is Most Talon handlebar with integrated stem, can't flip it.

Finally got a new photo of my bike sporting 7900:
http://vm.gwright.org.uk/cr1-7900.jpg I have a pair of Easton EC-90SLs with the same colour scheme (black with red/white decals) but they're in storage for the winter right now: http://vm.gwright.org.uk/easton-ec90.jpg |
