Since you have gone this far you almost have to repaint the sram red to match perfectly. I would repaint it all the dark navy, then redo the red logos red. No one has ever seen navy Sram Components. This would take this bike to the highest level possible.

1-Re-do the Zipp logo's the same way you did the "s-works" to match. That would look amazing.

Congrats on an amazing build. I just hope the hoopty next to you in transition never falls over on it.

Thanks for all the kind remarks. I plan on weighing it when I get it back this week for the folks who were asking. Still trying to decide on wheels and components.

Would you rather get a used set of Zedtech Super 9 rear and Zedtech 808 front, or a brand new set of Zedtech 808 Firecrest Carbon Clinchers?

Beautiful! And that is the cleanest shop I have ever seen. Everything is absolutely meticulous and then you had to leave a can of Skoal in a couple photos :P~

definately some Zipp FC's with custom logos . . .:) Nice man! At this point, Why not Di? Sram red would almost be melodramatic on this bike . .. just my opinion.

If you say so chief. But you might try reading what I wrote and also take the humor with it as well.

Please don't ride this. It is way too nice. Let's say you get a frame crack and Specialized replaces it under warranty. Do you really want to paint another?

This car with a bike rack and the Martini SHIV on top. Sheer awesomeness.

Any recommendations on what components I should build with? I was thinking Sram Red and really like the limited edition tour lte in the black and yellow I just think the yellow decals will clash. How easy would it be to remove the decals? I know they are cleared over so it would be another repainting project. I don't know if I can wait that long since I want to ride the bike! otherwise I'll probably just get the standard Sram Red but I prefer something unique :)

Wait 3 months.

We only sell it in Europe where people will "get it". If enough people ask their US Felt Dealers for one, maybe we can convince them to carry it here, too.

Felt LeMans is the model name. The idea actually came from the Ford GT era cars, but it works for generations of race fans.

With "3 on the tree" and Nexus IGH hub, its the bike that gets the most use in my garage lately...

Yes, that is how I got mine. Start looking in Germany.
