Very nice paint job on that frame...
but the font doesn't fit!
(yes, I know that's how Cinellis are supposed to be).

Beautiful bike! I've had a set of DT Swiss R1.1 based wheels for about a month now, and I really like them, I'm sure you're going to enjoy yours as well. Where did you get the logo free bars and stem? Inquiring minds need to know.

That looks like downtown Portland in the background of the first pic. But the sun's out. So where's you take the picture?
Har, har, har.
That is a beautiful bike!

The stem/handlebar are Tommaso, came with the bike package. I love the naked carbon, still getting used to the very shaped anatomical bars.
I'm loving the wheels, they feel very sturdy, light, and quick. You can't really tell in the photos, but he put green nipples on the spokes, which create a cool look while the wheel is spinning in the sun!

What's even more impressive is the background in the first pic. I don't have any tall bldgs where I live...
Nice bike BTW. Smooth, clean lines...nothing special...that's what does it for me.
