New build - Seven Axiom
I decided to build up a custom frame that I had built in 2000. I'm planning to race it this year in draft-legal duathlons, and ride it for all of my training. I'm really happy with the fit and look, and thought I'd throw a picture on here:

And here is the build list:
Frame: Seven Axiom Ti (2000)

Headset: Chris King No Threadset
Wheels: Mavic open pro rims 32-spoke with Ultegra hub front and Powertap SL hub rear
Stem: Syntace F99
Bars: Deda 215 shallow
Seatpost: Deda Blackstick Mag
Seat: San Marco ASPide fx
Tyres: Michelin Prorace2
Tubes: Michelin latex
Bar tape: Stella Azzurra Eleganza

I have always liked the look of Seven's and would certainly enjoy having a custom frame myself someday. Very nice job on the build, and much success in your racing.

Thanks for all of the comments. I went out for a couple of hours today and was blown away by the ride. As for the bar tape, I really like it so far. I've only spent a few hours on the bike so I can't speak to it's durability, but it has a nice feel and plenty of grip.
