It would look better with hoods and cables and it did look more balanced when i put the seatpost and saddle next to it. Another problem with it i realised after running the tape over it yesterday is a taller stem fits like a shorter stem🤦🏻♂️ so whilst the bar height is the same as my Genesis the extra 30mm of stack shortens the reach by about 15mm. I can ride a regular stack slammed on this especially as the superleggero has a little less rise. I find my Genesis setup really comfortable but I'm mostly riding it with a fully loaded backpack so prefer not to ride too head down. Its not a flexibility issue and i won't be commuting on this so can get away with a slightly more aggressive position.

I wonder if you build it with the Simworks stem it might look better proportioned once it’s all together?
With the cranks/hoods/rd/etc.. on I doubt it will look so top heavy.
