Throw the stick!!!!
Just built this one last night, took two rides on it today trying to set it up. It's going to be a while before I am comfortable on this torture device called a time trial bike.

Her last ride is tomorrow, then she's going to the great cracked frame maker in the sky.. It had a slight accident about two weeks ago and some minor pieces are held together with JB weld. Thankfully, it was a warranty issue and not a dumb end user issue..

The bar will be swapped and the cable routing cleaned up this week, but she is pretty close to being battle ready.

Hi,
Updated:
Since my last post I replaced Campagnolo 10-speed bar end shifters with new Campagnolo Return-to-Zero bar end "controls." New Deda adjustable stem is 1 cm shorter and I cut the extensions 1 cm to make sure that I don't repeat the fiasco from Masters nationals last year. Waiting to triple check all of the dimensions and ride it a few more times before I put handlebar tape on the extensions.
Tried to "hide" the cables as much as possible:
Unfortunately, I cut the rear brake cable a bit short but it's still workable. Waiting to get these brakes in July before I get new cables:

Decided to take a bit of a risk and do the pre-order thing.
