Sweet! Did you change the headset to get some extra drop?

No that is the headset that came with it. I am going to get a zero drop headset though, because I think I can get at least another cm out of the drop. I really fit myself to the bike with the idea of more frame, no spacers, but I think the headset cap (24 mm I think) can be much lower. So that will give me some more room to get more aggressive.

Ahhh. I see. I got an adjustable stem to get some drop, and I'm still planning to get a new headset to replace the tall stock cannondale one

An adjustable may happen, but I'm pretty sure that I can get there with the headset. I love the bike though, sweet, and really, very few out there. Fast I think! Really fast!

Brent, how tall are you? I've been considering a 54 Slice, in essence to fit myself with more frame, but was concerned it could be a little large. TIA

5'9. Honestly, there was the ability to get two bikes, both of which were not "ideal". And financially, it was between those two bikes. I think the fit is pretty good, and went with the 54 due to worrying that the 51 wouldn't be long enough.

It is def the biggest I could go for sure.

Interesting... I'm 5'8 so the 54 might be close.

I have short legs...80 cm inseam. 31.5 inches or something. 71 cm on the seat height and drop of 12 cm if i remember correctly. I have a long torso and shorter legs. So keep morphology in mind as you choose. Get the right size but I'm sure you'll LOVE the bike!

I'm 5'8" as well, and I ride a 54 Slice. I'm somewhat long-ish of leg, and a 54 seems to be a little long for my torso (not crazy long, just a little) but I would have to run more spacers on a 51. I went with the mantra to buy a bigger frame and minimize the number of spacers/avoid using an upward angled stem.

I'll get a new picture up in this thread soon...

ACK...this is why we can't have a Slice porn post.

Is the very first pic showing this magnificent steed in the small chainring???

For shame, for shame.

Is your seat too high, or too low?

Ah! My apologies! Just got it back from the LBS and hence it's in this state! Nope, the seats perfect for me!
I'll promise to post better pics by this week!
Apologies!

Hmmm, I'm unsure of the exact model, but I think it's a Tacx Saddle Clamp. It has an Elite bottle cage mounted to it. 1 or 2 bottle cages can fit on the clamp. Great holder, but quite a hassle to mount it!

EDIT: just realized that I took this picture from the floor, hence the "illusion" that the seat is either too high/low! I'm 176cm (5'8") with really long legs, hence the possibility that my seat looks high!
Sorry about the chainrings!
