Colour coordinating your deck to the bike must have taken a while though?

Nice, very nice!
I'm building up a TCR Advanced SL3 2013 at the moment - it will have DA9000 groupset. Wheels not sure yet, probably Dura Ace C35. I have fork, bars and stem all done, but the fork will need a paint job to match up correctly (the logos inside fork are wrong colour).

Finished building it at stupid o'clock in the morning. The fork needs to be painted so that the blue "Giant" logotype is green. Otherwise, just about done. 6.8kg.
54cm TCR Advanced SL3 frame, Dura Ace 9000 53-39T 172.5mm, 11-25, 110mm stem, 38cm bars, Shimano PD-9000 pedals, Planet X CNC 7075 alloy brakes.
The wheels are temporary from my SL1 Giant until I can get a set for this one. I've already taken it out - very happy with the results!

The SL3 turned out to be a little lighter than the SL1 did with the same Giant wheels. And it runs dead silent too.
Yeah, it was sitting around for a while - just a bare frame with no parts on it. Got it checked over and the frame is all good, so I figured I may as well build it up as near to identical to the other Giant you see. Pretty happy with how it turned out.rodneycc wrote:Return of the Green machine. I like it!

Pedals are temporary, and the rear brake needs a dropper for the pads to hit rim not tyre.

Dt Swiss wheels that have never been ridden on, Ultegra running gear and a seat that I will need to get used to.

It's just that the other workers in the schools get underpaid.
