I dig it, and I'm not typically a fan of the French vintage gear, but this one is very nicely put together. Can't tell if it is the photo or not, but the bars look ever so slightly angled down in the drops.
Far far far too many wheel decals for my tastes. If you just had one "Novatech" on each wheel, maybe just on the drive side even, then it'd be far better.

The Novatec's were demo wheels I borrowed for the weekend. I do agree that the graphics are over the top.
Here are my normal wheels.
Regarding the saddle position...thats how I was fit..
I put this pic up a few pages back.

White hoods are starting to split where it meets the bar...so will probably replace with black ones.
SRAM decal is to cover a nice scratch.
