The build kit for the bike will be essentially everything off my All City, bar the headset and brake calipers (which for now will be Tektro r559, with the Koolstop salmon thinline pads and Jagwire pro cable set). My idea is to get everything fitting nice with what I have, then gradually replace/upgrade parts once I'm sure everything is in the right place.
Parts that are definitely staying are:
Shimano Dura Ace dt shifters
TRP brake levers
Ritchey Venturemax Comp 46cm bars
Nitto S65 seatpost
Specialized Power ti saddle
Mavic Open Pro UST wheelset
Shimano Ultegra SPD pedals
Parts to replace/upgrade once I'm happy:
Stem: upgrade to Nitto Rhonda
Brake Calipers: Paul Racer
Chainset: whatever is nice in 165mm and sub compact (White/VO/Sugino?)
These items will be long term changes, replaced or upgraded as things wear out, or sufficient funds allow.
Waiting on confirmation from Winston, then I'll post some frame numbers.
May start a new cp thread for this build.
