Not the most glamorus photo, but here's mine! Before you knock it as "Not" note it has tubeless tires and wheel sets and I've upgraded the saddle and pedals from stock. Let me know what you think!

I'm sure its an awesome bike and fits you to a T...but this is a thread based purely on the looks of a bike.
Typically there are three criteria that makes a bike "hot". 1. Nice set of wheels...something deep or lightweight shallow ones. 2. Saddle to bar drop 3. Slammed stem...with a minimal bearing cap If your bike has all three of those criteria...most of the time it will get a hot. The blue Evo is a shining example of what is universally hot. http://www.pedalroom.com/p/2013-cust...vo-17438_1.jpg Lol...it was in the other H or N thread. That gave me a hard on |

8/10. Almost there. Black clipless pedals, black 105 brakes, remove the rear decal and a racier seat.

My recent build, 54cm Soma Smoothie. Please do not bust my balls about the chain/big ring please ;)

I like the general look of that Soma but as set up it looks like it's a size too small and the fit looks pretty awkward.

I think this thread still gets more views than the "New & Improved..."
So, I'll post here as well... Many upgrades recently. I've installed Ultegra 6800, Sugino OX901D crank, Zipp carbon cockpit and post...Selle Italia saddle, Nokon, yada, yada, yada...I gotta lower the hoods a wee bit. I argued with my mech he said, "They're flat here..." but, I want them lower on the hooks by a hash and a half...When it comes to hoods...do it yourself. You all have my permission to be mean if you'd like, no sunshine up this arse required: (Oh yeah, chain is on the SMALL ring...THE HORROR!!!! :p ) https://scontent-b-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/...07829027_n.jpg https://scontent-a-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/...57991819_n.jpg https://scontent-a-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/...71902023_n.jpg https://scontent-b-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/...87817703_n.jpg |

I think it is the wrong bike for someone who wants to ride with their handlebars that high.
