It genuinely is. Feels silly fast after riding solely with 45mm+ tyres for I don't know how long, two years at least? First ride was downright scary at times :-)
Yeah, should have gone for the Ritchey, but I'm actually pretty happy with how the Zipp looks on the bike. Might still swap later, I tried to leave enough steerer. Pink would be good, but it's kind of reserved for my other blue bike. I've been thinking either turquoise/teal or purple, possibly even ironic camo. The current bar tape is too thick anyway, and the hoods could possibly use a bit more (BD)HU, so rewrap is imminent.
Managed to do a little shakedown / fit check ride yesterday evening. Front derailleur needed some tweaking, but was really fun after that. Temporary(?) black bar tape, I'd like something a bit less boring but haven't been able to pick a colour.
