I've been admiring the 722-TS for a while and pulled the trigger yesterday.
Can't wait to get it built up!

That is one sexy build. I wouldn't expect any less. I will say this though, much like the Cinelli Mash offering I think the sloping TT is ridiculous on a street bike and kind of ugly. I was sad to see them go in this direction as much as I was to see Cinelli do it. I hope the 2012 takes a different approach.

Aesthetically, it's a subjective thing. I don't think the slope is very excessive on these bikes--not like the Affinity Lo Pro. However, I feel like it's only natural they've ended up in this direction. The Cdale track was the holy grail of track bikes on the street for a few years (and perhaps still for some people), and this sort of just mimics it. Also, it makes more sense to have this style for a street bike, since you don't ride 50+ miles on the street nonstop and it's nice to have that kind of handling through traffic (and for fun).

Your cog is slipping.
Considering my Kagero is a 55cm and has a 59cm seat tube (to accommodate the sloping tt), it would pretty much be just like any other frame if it had a 55cm seat tube and a level top tube. Same with the MASH.

Painfully average.
Yeah, that's be awesome. I'd love to see more Kagero's on the forum.
Maybe after mines is done though.
