I actually have a pink helmet, pink gloves, and quite a few kits with pink in them. I may have a bit of a pink problem. It stands out though. You see a guy with a 6" beard, tattoos, long hair, riding a pink bike and you either laugh or are frightened - I think this helps me on the road. People tend to stay far away from me.

Pretty hot, but what is going on with the cable routing on the right front side of the bike? Seems odd to run it like that.

Hot, but I have to be honest, I'm not liking what Cervelo did with the top tube this year. The red doesn't look bad, but I saw a white one, and I'm just not a fan.
You said to flame away...I don't want to be offensive, but it's pretty much just a stock road bike. There aren't really any upgrades to it that make it pop for me. Also, the background is busy, so it's hard to see the details of the bike. And my biggest pet peeve, valve stems aren't aligned with the tire labels.
I think you've done a fine job of updating this bike. Totally dig the 105 group with the new blue color and the wheels compliment the frame well.

It's a lot of pink.
This is the kit, throw in the pink POC helmet and gloves, plus socks and it's like an ice cream truck threw up on me.

My Steel Ride
Here's my mid 90's Tange Prestige Chrome steel frame with original Shimano 600 Ultegra group, some Oval wheels and bars, and a BRC Carbon fork. It really does ride like a dream and not too heavy to enjoy at about 21 lbs as you see it.
