In this state...a not.

Bars look to be rotated too high to compensate for the way low mounted levers.

Hot. I love the loud color & that you got the seatpost & stem painted to match. The gumwalls don't do it for me and next time please hold the camera level.

I actually like the gum walls, but I don't think I'll ever dig a dedicated road bike with a sloping top tube. Color is also over the top.

Is the frame a paint job or the original?

That's custom aftermarket, mostly done by the poster (if I recall correctly). The paint/rebuild thread is around here somewhere.

From: In my car with my Garmin, stealing all your Strava KOMs

The Surly is hot. The neon yellow bits add a good touch. The only change I would make is a black stem, but still a great looking bike regardless.

The red Tarmac is hot, too. I normally prefer SRAM cranks to Shimano in regards to aesthetics, but the 6800 looks sweet.
