Since my last message I have done loads of kilometres on the bike: most of them on my weekly commute, but I also rode the bike at a gran fondo in the Belgium Ardennes. The simple fact the frame is still in one piece makes me really happy. At first I had some doubts how the frame would perform, but right now I ride it just like any other bike.
Below are some shots of the finished build. I switched the Bontrager wheels for a pair of Easton EA90 wheels, because the braking performance of the Bontrager wasn't exactly confidence inspiring. Otherwise the build is pretty much like I planned.
