This is almost like a "show me your Specialized" thread.

As much as I am a fan of both Look frames and Bora Ultra wheels, I don't think the two work together in this case. I don't ever recall seeing Bora decals like that before and the weaving certainly looks different. They might be a version that I am unaware of or how the bike is photographed.
The bike is great and I am sure rides incredible but I would go for another set of wheels in this case. Maybe Lighweights
?

Not bad at all. The frame has nice lines and real potential. A different bar configuration and nicer wheels would make it pop.

Why thank you good sir. I was thinking about getting a new bike all together, but decided to change out the horrid white bar tape and white tires and now am looking into a new saddle and wheel set.

That's awesome. Yeah, new and shiny things always catch my eye, but I bought this bike new in 2012 and immediately got orders to be stationed overseas and just recently have come back so the bike is essentially new. I have just recently gotten big into riding it and love it more and more after every ride. Maybe something fancy later on, but this thread has given me some really good ideas and inspiration to upgrade this baby.

Building this up for the lady, what do you guys think? Pretty sweet for her first bike. Easing her into foot retention.
Got to show mine off while i'm at it!
