Very nice! I have the same Silca pump on my Mr Pink, it fits very pleasingly above the top tube on the extended headtube, allowing room for a frame bag underneath. Which brakes are you using? I've got some second-hand Tektro ones that don't give me much confidence descending at all, I'm looking to upgrade before the weather turns.

Fitted new tyres today, was going for a ride, but can't feel my thumbs! Specialized Roubaix Pro 30/32mm tubeless, utter bastards to put on Mavic rims (but then most tyres are).
The solution was to get to about the last 8-10 inches of bead left to go, cable tie the tyre to the rim either side, and gently persuade with a tyre lever, ensuring not to catch the rim tape with said lever (not that that happened twice, just a warning).
