My probably "not hot" old man Roubaix

I had thought about posting this in the Road "hot or not" thread but realized they don't like a Roubaix that isn't flat black and doesn't have 3 inch deep aero rims w/ full Dura-Ace. Most don't like any Roubaix. Why open myself up to insult? This is a very comfortable bike for an old man to ride with a few changes to make it fit me better such as a 130 mm stem and wider 44 cm bar (FSA Plasma carbon monobar). I upgraded my wheels to ceramic bearing Fulcrums and also upgraded to a ceramic bottom bracket for my Ultegra group. Makes me want to ride more often and farther. And isn't that the basic idea?
