Not normally a fan of the modern "logos with everything" look, but they all come together nicely here.

Your cable outers could do with a trim: the front brake is doubling back on itself and the rear is nearly entering the stop at a right angle.

I can't really see what you've done with the gear cables (they look to be sticking out the front), but they should be symmetrical: running them into the opposite stops (ie rear derailleur into left hand stop) and crossing the inners under the down tube usually gives a nice, neat run.

Thanks for the feedback !

I was thinking of destickering the Mavics but I was not brave enough to do it ! I think they look okay though!

Wanted to get the Zipp parts in beyond black colour (which basically black with black logos) but I was able to find much better prices on the black with white logo parts (I guess the black on back are more desirable these days).

In terms of cables I kept them long while I was playing around with different stem/drops/shifters combinations. I was worried not to cut them too short and then have to get new ones!

I do need to get them done properly now. I will probably use a picture from the internet to "copy" the correct routing from! I do get very frustrated with the inner cables when reinstalling, as the ends split and they wont go back into the outers.
