Chrome.

And the handlebars are fine. Nice bike.

I'd love to put Shimano on it, but need the clutched RD.

Luggage? That bag only fits 1 tube & CO2. I only use it when the support vehicle is not available, lol!

It was given to me by Oleg in his Bugatti when we were flossing in Monaco.







Bontrager tape.

I ended up with a Cervelo P3, but love the look of the Argons. No dealers around me though, so I couldn't really test one. No regrets though - the P3 rocks.

Can't move the seat down, it's at the bottom and had to cut it short to fit. Yeah, I see what you mean about the stem. I am quite flexible and longer in the upper torso than the legs. I have always had to ride a bike one size up.
As it is on my road bike in aero I feel as if I am sliding off the end of the aero-bars.

Yeah, I love the Cervelo's too. I had to go a long way to find this one.

Unfortunately, we're just going to have start accepting hoods like this. Every manufacturer is making them like this now and I feel hydro brakes won't be going anywhere.

shimano's current and upcoming hydro levers are nowhere as tall as the sram/campy ones

True, but they still stick out like giant deer antlers. At least the tall ones allow you to hold onto them when you're in invisible aero bar position.

They're about level, but really tall. Stem won't go lower, and I'm 5'11", on a "small" frame. I'm trying here, lol.

I know it's the hood's fault (a -17 would help), but still a hot killer for me.

Not.

Tires, purple hubs with red accent on the pedals, stack above the stem, seat looks pushed too far back.

Frame/drivetrain/bar tape is hot. The rest is not.

Gum-wall or nothing!

I love it when someone who calls out a bunch of other bikes finally posts their bike and everyone piles on the revenge "nots"

Also, gumwalls look great on carbon wheels, imo. Anything with a silver brake track and there's just too much going on.

Haha, I totally deserve it.

I agree, gum-walls with non-silver brake tract, after additional consideration.

What do you think... tan sidewalls or not?

I think on a black and white bike, it looks best without. I do run the GP Classic on my AD10 Master, and it is a nice looking tire.
