    The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

    Whoa- looks gorgeous- you must be SO EXCITED!!!!!

    The seat post and the head tube look almost perfectly vertical....is that for a reason?- never seen a bike that way!

    So in the end, did you go for the really high end components?

    I think that's just the way the bench clamp holds it. Notice that the chain stays are not parallel to the ground.
    I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

    That's exactly it. I don't recall the angles, but it's pretty standard, and will get that info with the owner's stuff tonight. The top tube actually has about a 9 (maybe 12?) degree slope to it, and it's straight on the clamp. It's a pretty compact frame.

    Thanks all. I'm totally excited. I have the truck with me today and expect to pick it up tonight! Other than the 700 crankset (b/c Shimano doesn't make DuraAce in compact), it will have all DA stuff and nice Kysrium wheels. I'll be taking out on the N2 ride Saturday a.m. Looking forward to that...but I may have to do a shorter shake down ride tomorrow or Friday evening.

    Ooo. Nice. I really like the clean, simple look of the Sevens.
