Love how this bike turned out.
Over the summer I had bought a Seven to try out, but the geometry wound up being compltely bad for me, so moved most of the parts over to this frame. First ride planned for tomorrow. Pics are in the sun and shade (no filter) to show how much different the color looks from light to shade. I have a feeling this is going to be a keeper!

Got a good shakeout ride today in the rolling hills of NJ farmland.
This bike is really good. I got the frame/fork/headset for just about $1k delivered to my door, and with that in mind it's a great value. With absolutely no weight weenie parts it built up to 17.2 lbs, which is respectable for a steel bike. I could lose more weight if I had paid more attention and spent additional dollars building it up. The Bora 35's are just wonderful on this bike, and I'm really enjoying the 1x drivetrain on the road for the solo riding I usually do. Bike climbs competently, and descends confidently. I had it going downhill very near 50mph today and there was no drama, solid and predictable handling. I can easily no-hand ride the bike, which is always a good sign of a well balanced fit and ride. More thoughs as I get more miles, but very happy with the build and the ride as of ride #1. I can see this getting many more road miles.
