    Would like to see a nice photo.
    This one is like a black cat in a black bag IMO, arty farty photos like this don’t work in this context, much like the Factor pic on the Home page.

    I can tell that h/she needs to trim the steerer tube though.

    Taken with the phone in the garage:

    I have to say that the green on the photos don't make it justice. The first thing I've considered before buying it (from the manufacturers pictures), was to repaint it with another color scheme, but on arrival I was happily surprised that the green have some cool sparkle reflexes on it, a kind of blueish/pinkish reflections that make the frameset look completely different from the photos.

    Pain is a momentary lapse of character.

    Have 2 x 0,5mm spacers on top of the stem, raised 0,5mm under the stem from my old bike (getting old with 47), and will decide if the stem will rest in that place after a few long rides.

    I’m only cutting the steerer after that, and even then, I’ll probably left a single 0,5 spacer on top.
