Looks hot, stylish, but hard to keep clean - but what is a roll of bar tape or two against a SRAM red group.
Also it looks like a largish frame fitted to a smallish person but who am I to judge...It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.

that bike is super hot.
may I suggest Fizik bar tape. Their white tape is much easier to keep white than white cork tape or synthetic white tapes with a sort of soft corky sueded feel.

that is sick!
btw, I'm picking up some Mon Chasseral wheels from the shop today to go with my white Tarmac
I don't like getting blown around on the Carbones for my "whatever rides."
I also like those tubes, but I only use them on the Carbones (need 80mm valve). For some reason, my BF and I aren't having the best luck with this 60mm tube on our other wheels. Seemed to have a slow leak, but then we inflated the tube off of the bike, and it seems to be doing fine. ...? I think I'm sticking with Bontrager for short valves, because they have served me pretty well so far. I also don't like how the V's aren't threaded. They rattle around a lot, particularly in the carbon fairing on the Carbones.
I have to ask... why not go all the way with white Hudz?

Nice ride......If you want possibly the best and strongest wheelset to compliment your bike I would get the Edge 25 carbon tubulars. I believe they come in under 1000 grams for the set.

just got back home!
went on a 25 mile ride with some people. it was GREAT! the weather was wonderful and the bike rode like a dream! haven't been on her since last year. i have ridden outside this year...but it was on my BH Connect. now...i love my BH Connect...but the 595 is such a superior bike! it's just so balanced...descends like a bat out of hell...climbs like a goat...responsive...and even damn comfortable.
