Thanks man! I wasn't crazy about the Tektro lever on this build so I swapped in a set of older Shimano 600 earo levers. I'm wrapping the bars in cranberry colored cloth tape tomorrow. Should look nice when it's done.

I left the brake cables a little long so I can fit some luggage up front for my trip next week. They'll probably be trimmed when I get back.

Whilst i agree Force on the cannondale is awesome, i was over having a second road bike that didnt get used
I love the frame, but one gear is sufficient, hence the conversion.
