So Olmo now finished. Not really happy with the bar tape, really wanted a golden yellow to try to match the frame not the 'neon' yellow (which actually looks green) - maybe the 'oilslick' tape would have been better. Sod of a job to get the seatpost fitted, needed about an hour with some emery on a stick cleaning out the seat tube but probably better than reaming out to 27.2mm. The R8000 FD doesn't seem to play perfectly with the R9000 shifters but only with the trim positions and maybe because I haven't got it set quite right. After setting up 3 bikes with R7000/R8000 FD I only just realised that the tail end of the shift wire is supposed to loop back through the little plastic trim piece (RTFM).
