It's definitely a head turner and has personality; a shame to do this to such a pretty frame where there are so many uglier Evos out there, covered in logos and marketing with crummy colors.

I agree, but that paint has come and gone. I'm still a little shocked that I broke the frame after so little time with the bike, my third broken frame in two years. It was either this or a Hi-Mod and that's a ton of cash for a frame that I could break just as easily.

I know right? So many frames have the company logo on every tube.... There's gotta be some kind of balance. Moving my force group from my black on black CAAD10 to a Cervelo R5 is definitely going to be a aesthetic difference. super stoked.

I almost got an SST once, but it was too rough for my preferences, (and roads around me). Went with Altamira.

Not the best shots, but....
Custom Cerakote mix of Zombie Green and glossy white. There is a small, black LOVE statue decal on the left chain stay.

Green with that pistachio would look, well, "developmentally challenged." In any event, the wheels were moved over from another bike, so red it was, and it has gotten much love in other forums in less than 24 hrs.

I like it! What are the rims...Stan's? I have a similar build with Pacentis, but I'm not running tubeless yet.

Mostly Stock CAAD10. Eventually working towards some used carbon wheels...
Thinking the service course logo on the stem needs to be taken off.... or getting the new service course SL stem.

Wrong sub-forum for opinions. Go try the hipsters in Singlespeed & Fixed Gear. I ride a fixie too, and I'll say yours wouldn't turn my head to stare.

Groovy drop-outs, but the rest of the detailing looks awful blunt and uninspired. Choice of colors is inspired, though, so hot enough....
