Fair enough. I thought it was some kind of interesting history like a bike that was deemed too fast for production by mark cavendish and was put on the back burner but it somehow leaked out of the factory and now a privileged few get to ride this insanely stiff and quick Specialized P-Black Unobtanium edition... Peeeeoooshh (special effect)

For those of you who remember I had the weird bike with the digital blue tires with the messed up camera angle. Yeah they look better on her bike than mine, so we swapped tires. Had to make changes to match new saddle.
After finally having ridden the bike for a while now, have the setup to where I need it to be. Yeah, I know I need to cut the steerertube, this is a century focused bike.
Not really asserting that it's hot, but just updating so my legacy here isn't the weird blue tired bike LOL. I'll eventually get to black tires but for now the look I can live with.
Going to leave this bike alone for cruising rides and going to build a more typical all black cervelo for speed. I'll be back.

The rear brake cable donuts aren't evenly spaced.
And, it might be an illussion, but the drops look so flat that they almost appear to be angled upwards. In which case the bars could be rotated up just that touch and the levers moved down accordingly.
Oh, and egads, the shifter cabling is external.
Nicely done.
Definately hot.
