Made a few little changes to the Roubaix such as removing the wheel bilboards and changing to a smaller computer/mount. Yay or nay?

Looks pretty hot to me. Who cares what position the crank arm is in (I don't).

Pretty clean and nicely hot, even though this paint scheme ain't my favorite. Maybe it is just an artifact of the camera angle and the overall geometry, but the cockpit looks a little scrunched up or short stemmed.

Stem is 100mm and it fits like a glove. Not sure there is anything I could do any differante as far as stem or bars go.

The Kona, the Dale and the Roubaix all got a NOT from me due to the position of the cranks.
The S Works has the chain on the wrong ring. NOT.

Thanks man they look great, and thanks for the link! Love the crank on the Noah, as I also have a 3D+ on my R3. More decisions for stickers...
O yea, was not a hot or not pic, did that 100 or so pages ago. Great feedback WRT decal. Thanks.

That's not to say I wouldn't love to have that bike, but I don't like the look.

+1 S-Works just don't do it for me. Too much of that pooping dog look going on.
