Here it is, back from the painter. A Giro/Baum inspired paint job, painted by Jack Kane of kanebikes.com.
A couple minor things to finish up... wire wrap the excess wires up front, chainstay protector. It was so easy to install and dial in the EPS system; it took more time dialing in the ZG brakes. I'll be taking it out for its first EPS ride tomorrow, and will take a much better pic out on the road.

All these all black bikes look like they are made of charcoal.

definitely a sweet looking ride and paint job...while it seems to be suffering from the "hunched over dog taking a dump" look, I still think it has hot potential...

I think, many amnufacturers are putting less paint for warranty purposes.
Less paint less cracks in the finish. give me more black,white, green, orange.

Thank you. It weighs 15.49 pounds with cages and pedals. Considering that it is built with Ultegra di2 and a gxp spindled Quarq S975 I am really happy with the weight.
