This thread is for pure lols, this bike (and my travel plans) were in pipeline with the exact spec down to straddle cable carriers for last year or so.
That weigh being a massive bargain and exact on point with spec and geo (!!) is just a co-incidence saving me quite a bit of dollar. I was going to get the Pacer and do it but they are too long and low for me plus overpriced for generic/heavy chromoly. The most spendy fall back was full custom which I didn't need geo-wise all these mods are easy to get done and relatively cheaper.
Pinterest is boring and don't think @Señor_Bear has an account there.

Looking into S&S but I think they sell it direct to framebuilders so will have to wait.
Mods on frame will be:
S&S
Brake braze ons (obv)
Rear brake cable stop with adjuster
STI gear cable stop with adjusters because I hate the look of those adapters
Braze on FD mount
Front cable stop most likely integrated in headset .. either FSA or Ritchey. Jagwire straddle cable carrier.
Ritchey finishing kit if they do a decent black inline seatpost, otherwise Thomson post and stem with neo classic bars.
Most likely going to get these wheels: http://www.wiggle.co.uk/cosine-24mm-alloy-clincher-road-wheelset/
Tyres with mudguards possibly Schwalbe One 28mm and without 33mm Strada Bianca Race.
And Sora R3000 groupset.
Need to decide on graphics if any. Now it can't (shouldnt?) have the framebuilders name ..
