after seeing lowcel's parlee, i had to have one 

'13 Z5 SLi
Di2 9070 11 speed, 52/36, 172.5, 11-25 w/ seatpost battery
Enve compact bars 42cm
Enve stem 100mm
Enve seatpose 31.6 25mm setback
Enve SES 6.7 clinchers
Selle Italia superflow 130
Keo Blade Ti
Arundle Mandible matte
still getting a feel for the fit, i'll most likely remove one (or both) spacers.

You know, I've been riding Shimano since the late 80's (Suntour before that) and I was always happy with it until this version of DA... This lead me to look at other offerings including SRAM... Once I tried Campagnolo my eyes were suddenly open, there is no going back. I only wish 7900 had come out years sooner, but that's another thread

Just replaced the handlebar to traditional bend with the new quill stem. New bar tape and yokozuna cables. New Campy Zonda wheels

Why?
Very few people like the look of fsa cranks, your bars are rotated upwards (if this is not the case than the angle of the shot is wrong and so is the staging) etc.
I'll say it the way it is most of the bikes here are... well... very expensive so I'm afraid yours is just too stock-ish

The Drive Side is Within
Since when is "not" not part of the "hot or not" title.
Otherwise, we ought to have a "hot bikes only" thread.
Just sayin'.
The Tarmac is squarely in the "not" category. But wouldn't this thread be boring without the nots?

I loved owning and riding a Tarmac, but wouldn't want to be seen on this one...
