Just finished building up my new road rig...anyone care to guess what this is? ;) (PS - finishing trim isn't final, seat collar/headset cap/bottle cages will be matched at some point. Also excuse the image quality, will take much better pics soon)

Heh, I could go even lower :D

Nice and smooth! On the heavier side for a carbon post, but it cuts down on road buzz quite a bit.

It's Cyclo Carbon - as stated on the downtube. :D

It's obviously been refinished. Here's another pic and hint - this frameset was raced in the WT. Should narrow it down.... ;)

Im def no pro at spotting carbon rigs as i usually dont give them much attention but that seattube / tt junction looks very TREKesque to me. As do the headtube.

Thats a cool paint job btw!

Was it that obvious, or did you do some detective work? :D This is the correct answer - it's a 2014 Izalco SL with a Supersix Evo fork, repaired and resprayed by Drew over at Cyclocarbon. All that paint does weigh the frame down a bit (~1080g), but it's worth it - it's been a real head turner! The metallic sparkle looks really good in the sunlight. I'll get some better pics up later this week.
