Dear STers,
I thought I'd post about my winter project. I've read a few similar posts here and elsewhere, which helped inspire this. So maybe I'll inspire someone else, and more hopefully, get a little bit of advice for completing this.
I managed to get my hands on a nice 54cm 2011 Cervelo P4 frameset for el cheapo. The intention was to sand this frame down to the bare carbon and clear coat it. Then build it up with a 1x11 Di2 drivetrain and the new Tririg Alpha-X bars. I intend to do some little mods to allow internal routing of the Di2 cabling, and to try and get a battery in the seattube. The other special idea I intend to do is put in top tube bosses to allow a Torhan's bento box and hiding of the Di2 junction box.
Why? (that's rhetorical duh)
Using the google machine told me to expect quite a few hours of joy sanding this frameset down.
I'm posting this already halfway through but here's the before pics.
