Hot, Not a fan of the blue tape though. It’s distracting IMO. Also, why are the rear and front calipers different?

Yeah I'll change the tape, it's what I had on hand when I bought new bars and stem so could ride next day. Calipers are both ice grey Force, I had silver Red on there just prefered gray. I would prefer black really but may go back to the Red's in the meantime

Slicker post, slam and trim the front, and some of those new levers with the pistons where they belong, and that thing would be totally banging.

That is a well-built, high-quality, high-performance road machine, with all its parts in the right places. I understand why people think it's hot. Unfortunately, I find it kind of dull and uninspiring. I've never been one for the "stealth" look. Maybe a different background would change my mind.
