Looks well nice. 105 speaks for itself, and the FSA stuff is non bling but reliable. The bars are a very nice shape for a cx bike IMHO. The 46/36 chainset is gives nice gearing too.
The Tektro Lyra are about the cheapest cable brakes you can get. I have them on a cargo bike and they work great for me. Its possible they work great with 105 levers too. Worth a shot, otherwise its a cheap upgrade.
Only if they have the green though.
I love the look of this frameset. All the braze-ons, sweet geometry (well in my size at least), stiff, tapered steerer. Looks like the right balance of fun and practicality. As in it sides more on the fun side.
