Here' s an updated pic of my 3rd bike, ready for the summer.

BMC Pro Machine SLC01 55cm
Dura-Ace 7800 12-27 cassette, Ultegra SL 6600 brakes, KMC X10SL chain
Rest is Ultegra 6700
Gipiemme Tecno wheels (borrowed until i fund for my own, recommendations very welcome)
Speedplay Zero pedals

There are prettier bikes out there, and maybe with a bit of hard work and a lottery win, one day....
And the steerer is yet to be cut!

I think those wheels are missing some spokes ;-)

I quite like it, think I'd drop the coloured cables and put a black chainset on and its definitely a yes from me.

drkawaszelong

thanks! the brake cables are the yellow ones and were the cheapest out when the budget was running low...distinguishable though!

That's a truly great frameset, still absolutely holds its own against all newcomers!

That rocks - well smart.

thanks for the kind words!

Here are some fresh wheels from Spokesman Wheels (fantastic service btw).

Velocity A23, with tubeless Ultremos.
Novatec hubs with Sapim CX Ray spokes.





Ride: sublime. Massive difference between these and standard narrow clincher wheels.

However, it does feel a little sluggish to accelerate on the flat but that might just be a tire pressure thing.
