Took it down HH today for a spin. I found the saddle adjustment on the alpina seat post a faff and only realised after training that I'd been riding with the nose pointing down like a Foffa.
The stem I have on the drops is probably a touch too long. I might look out for a 110 Arx instead. Or easton ec90 sl.
Here it is with corrected saddle position (the nose might still be a bit down...) and commuter bars.
Once I'd tweaked the setup a bit the ride home was great. The frame is really responsive, but little flex gives for a painful ride to and from the track.
