Why not a larger frame size?

It appears that you are running a lot of spacers as well as a long stem, you would be suited for a larger frame size.

That's really pretty nice. I like the campy, the black mavic wheels and the yellow accents. Can you give a spec rundown?

Here's my latest. Just finished it yesterday. I'll cut off the excess steer tube when I've dialed it in.

Saddle is a Fizik Arione vs
Stem is an FSA OS99 carbon with the graphics removed
Bars are FSA SLK carbon with graphics removed

I've always been a little sceptical of integrated seatposts, but that bike is just about perfect. I've always had campy 10 and keep trying to pull the trigger on SRAM/Shimano road bikes but can't bring myself to do it.

Ahh I see the mixup. This was literally seconds after I put it together out of the box. A very loose assembly, nothing adjusted. At the top of the post I said I was getting it fit after christmas. Now it doesnt look like a girraffe is riding it

A Lot of spacers and the Seat Post sticking Out Real Far

Just assembled yesterday and still finalizing the fit, so ignore the steering tube:

Just getting my TT rig primed for the season. Put the Quarq on, shortened some cables, dropped the stem. I still need to cut steer tube and glue my tires on, but those things won't happen today. But, rest assured, they will be done. The P2's brother just got a wash/cleaning. It was time. First time it's been picture-worthy in a while.

My humble bike and first tri bike...
Re: Let's see your ride! [iamdreyfus]

Don't be too humble about that bike, my friend. Switch out the brake levers, get good fast tires, latex tubes, and rent a set of Zipps for your races, and I doubt you're giving up much more than 5-10 seconds/40k on bikes that cost 5 times what yours did. I've been riding a 2010 Seduza the last few years, and as soon as I saw your bike on the market, I wished I had waited.

Not as flashy as all the other rides out there, but it's perfect for me and it flies!

Nice.
Simple but effective.
Some constructive feedback: shorten up those derailleur cables. You wanna have less of them in the airflow ...
