Looks great!

I’m gonna have to take a point off for the Shimano chain stay decal with Campy parts though. :slight_smile:

That thing deserves a pair of campy skeleton brakes and an ultra torque crank set.

Wow, even though I don’t like that baby blue color, that bike looks really great. Nice parts specs! What is with the painted stem faceplate though? Sorta’ over the top there.

That thing right at 15.1 lbs. or what?

The cranks are fine. But given the frame, wheelset and gruppo, fine isn’t good enough. Replace the cranks and it’s perfect :slight_smile:

Hi
Can you tell me the model and type of saddle on the bike?

thanks
chris

time to bleach and stain the fence, no?

I envy you…great looking bike.

That really is a thing of beauty…

OMG there is a ghost riding your bike!!

I honestly don’t know which mode Fizikl saddle it is? I don’t see anything similar on their website. I know a lot of the other Slipstream guys use the Arione but this is definitely not one of those.

The bike is actually surprisingly on the heavy side. Weighed in at just over 18 lbs. This frame was made ultra stiff with more material so that is part of it, and the Zipp Clinchers probably don’t help.

Down the road, I would like to replace the crank, and maybe put the carbon aergo oval bars on, and maybe some aftermarket brakes of some sort…feather, ZG, Bontrager XXX…

Also, I love the white that the Zipp stickers bring into the bike but I also do have the option of getting some of these…

or thinking I could have some custom ones made by Tai or something.

Where did you find that NOS Campy?

Very nice!

Yea, get a Campy crank.

One thing, you have your chain in the small ring:)

What kind of crank would you guys recommend?

Mmmmmm… Argyle!!! Sweet Bike!

Walter Freaking Payton. “SWEETNESS”

OK, I’m VERY jealous…but one thing, it’s called White Balance, you might want to look into it. :slight_smile:

That’s a thing of beauty. I’ll post a D-legal AR2 soon. I know others have said it but it’s as if there were a HUGE MOLE right in the middle of her face. MUST REPLACE CRANK!!!

Very nice setup - I could do without the peripheral decals and would use black bar tape but still a beautiful ride.

Dude, you cant have campy on a bike that says shimano.
