I've since changed the tape to regular Fizik Microtex (as opposed to the soft touch that gets grungy like normal white tape), put an R700 crankset on, and tweaked the fit a little bit more.

Also, you're an inch off - I'm 5'3" without shoes.

Nothing wrong with that.

OK, so how tall are you mm? That's not a bad looking bike for a Performance (cringe) bike.

Thanks! It's what I could afford to build/buy so I'm happy with it :)

Thats absolutely adorable that the bike with the aid of saddle barely reaches the handle of the door

Did you get the R700 from Jenson? Liked it so damn much I bought two for the less than a 105.

I think short guys have an unfair aero advantage in cycling anyway.

Just messin with you.. I like that Scat too... makes sense though.. I bought the TT version. Oddly enough they were made by Focus which is now being sold without the re-branding @ Performance.

The future of cycling are converted horse jockeys.
