HOT
mehhhh...I might look back at it, just to see what it was, but I dont LOVE it.
Hot bike but I dont like the red bars. I think acetone to remove the labels all together or the stealth black option would be better. Even though the frame has red, the front looks heavy with red and the back with minimal. the way it sits now, it looks unbalanced to me.

Primary Build Specs:
• Campy Super Record 11 gruppo
• Ritchey Carbon WCS cockpit (Evolution Bars)
• Enve SES 3.4 Clinchers w/CK R45 Ceramic Hubs and Conti GP4000S tires
• Specialized S-Works Toupe Saddle w/custom recovering by Busyman Bicycles
• Matching Custom Bar Tape by Busyman Bicycles
• Other: Speedplay Zero pedals, K-Edge gold/black chain catcher, MC cages
Total Weight: 15 lbs 4 oz.
Tried the new Ultralite Cirris Ti pedals (112g for the pair, including cleats) but never could get comfortable with the clip in/out….replaced with Speedplay Zeros.
Can’t do much about the stack as Mario’s fleet are designed with very aggressive geometry, so this is about as low as I can go. Very smooth and compliant ride.
anyways, back to the bike - I love the very aggressive geometry of his bikes. They're all built for speed.
