You really need longer cables... ![EEK!](https://www.bikeforums.net/images/smilies/eek.gif)
This might be hot for some people ... but it's a NOT for me.
Cables way too long. Too much blue. Bar tape, cables, and sidewalls are just too much. Bike is simply too large to look ok. Sometimes this happens with my shoes. The sample shoe looks awesome, then take out my size and they look like skis... This is kinda what this bike looks like. It's so big the wheels look like 650's...

I've heard and read great and wonderful things about this bike. And it does look sweet. But it's white. I want to like it, I really do. And I DO like it. But it doesn't qualify as "HOT" to me, sorry.
Nice setup and photo, though, I'll give you that.

I'd debadge the wheels and level the saddle. (May already be level when the bike isn't on the stand. Looks pointed down though) Nice looking bike! Not hot, though, not to me anyway. But seriously good looking.

The saddle looked level without the stand to me.... Seriously considering to debate the wheels... Or get a secondary aluminum clincher
