Pretty sweet, but I would try to tuck the cables into the bars in order to clean up the picture a bit. All in all, a lot nicer than what I'm riding!

It says the following thing to me, "I will spend good money to take every advantage and grind you ass into the ground. Fuck you." This of course warms my heart and makes me want to hug only being held back by the feeling a man riding a bike like that would knife me for even thinking of touching him.
Greatness.
Don't let the Trek and player haters give you shit.

Looks like Darth Vader's TT set-up, but don't you start sliding all over those aerobars when you start sweating (all carbon and nothing grippy)? I also second the thoughts about it being painful to ride.

That is just plain awesome ... Really makes me jealous since mine has most likely not been manufactured yet (size small), but all in all looks like it will be well worth the wait.

Yes, this TTX looks very nice indeed. Like those Walser bars too.
Give us some feedback once you spent time on them.

That really is an Evil, bad ass looking bike.
I think that is what a Euro roadie has nightmares about if he had to ride a sponsor bike for Paris-Roubaix. LOL!
Any slipping with those wild bars and that F119 stem? Use Tack paste?

I second that comment. The TTX SSL is my DREAM bike, congrats on a beautiful ride. IMO, any of the TTX's are better looking than 99% of the bikes out there, and especially better looking than the P3-C (ducks).
As a fellow 'Trekie', that is some 1st class porn.

I thought aerobars pointing down (so the arms are pointing below parallel with the ground) was bad for aerodynamics?
If it is, seems a shame that this bike is so sexy and aero and it's being ruined by forearm position.
