Finally have matching tires, swapped out my Cane Creek levers for TRP, and went full cotton candy with the bar tape.

^ quick question regarding that chain and saddle. Is saddle theft something that you really have to worry about? I mean no disrespect, but that is no Brooks saddle on there, but a WTB from what I can see. Are you worried that someone will steal that? Also, can you hear the chain hitting the rear stays when you are riding?
I like the bar tape/paint combo.

This page is the opposite of the blacked out matte bike scene. It's nice to see shiny COLORS!

The stem clashes with the rest of the build.
The prev. gen cadence x ritchey collab stem would've done the rest of the build justice.

Pretty sure we would be friends if we lived in the same town. This bike is outstanding. I'd ride the hell out of that.

Nah it's got more of a 90's vibe and besides, the black counteracts that notion.
You might even be able to pull off celeste bar tape.
