I dig the stem. I still need one so don't be surprised if you see it on next week. I also Like the Pro integrated bars especially at $499 but they are only 44 with 130mm stem.
I bought the same wheels, SMP carbon seat, Titan Time pedals today.

i was afraid more green would overdue it but the wheel decals being outline only (and a great color match) seem to work well.

Thanks.., I'm kind of done with the green. I wasn't sure on the decals but I agree, they seem to compliment okay, not too much. Anyhow, I had them make 2 full sets so if i take them off, I still have another set.

Congrats, I like it. Something a little different that you dont see every day. BTW, I think we have the same couch. 
The wheels look like they could be factory OEM spec. perfect.
look out, the level saddle nazis are going to be coming after you...

I thought the bike was going to be finished today, but I guess tomorrow is what they're saying.

The green on the wheels may be a bit over the top for me. Build should be a good one...but I do think you could have gone deeper (Sixty Six) with the rear wheel.

I woke up today like it was Christmas, pretty excited thinking I was going to ride the new Venge in this awesome 80+ degree Ca weather today. But no.....I got to the shop thinking I was gonna get fitted, and the frame was still in the stand. I was so bumbed I dont think I heard a word the Mechanic said the whole time I was there. Anyhow.., I had to go back to bring them some part I had and when I got there tonight, she was 98% done. Needless to say, I will be there fist thing in the AM to be fitted. BTW, it weighed w/o bar tape 15.LB 1oz.
