Any issues so far with the Specialized Quarq and SR EPS?

Venge EPS, super hot obviously, but mind the valve stem alignment.
BH, hot, but that cassette is downright filthy, FSA crank is a minus, and saddle ought to be more level.
CAAD10, hot again, but valve stems outta whack, water bottle, computer, and sticker are all minuses.
Let's not forget about standards people.

Oy Vey! My valve stem comments pertained to the 6 o'clock alignment standard.
Every several pages, there needs to be a reminder that this is not just another "post your bike" thread, and that any critique ought not be taken personally. This is a place where OCD reigns supreme, and every detail is up for scrutiny. That is what makes this thread great.
It's not my job to figure out how not to run an FSA crank on your bike, only to point out that it detracts from the overall hot factor. I'm sure it rides great.

I believe the FSA crank is the only BB386 specific crankset on the market, so actually that should be the preferred crank on the BB386 frame if you're going to be all OCD about it...

If you wanted an OCD opinion, I would vote sanding down the finish on the FSA crank arms, replacing it with a matte clear coat, and then ditching the chainrings in favor of ones from praxis.
