I've once build this bike for a friend, and I liked the combination of carbon forks and post (vertical compliance ;) ) and the chorus group. It looks a bit strange now with the chrome forks. I can always change it with the (now polished) campagnolo aero seatpost that came with the bike...

Yesss. Excuse me the crappy phone pics, but light conditions are shitty in my workspace in the evening light. Bike is almost ready. Gears are set up and in working order. Ultremo tires are mounted, will try to remove the red logo's because they look ugly. More and better pics follow when bike is ready!
White saddle is only for testing purposes. Still waiting for the concor to be recovered.
Looking for some silver/grey skewer nuts, cause I don't like the plastic black ones. Also a 3ttt plastic cap for the stem is on the wanted list, in case anyone has them lying around ;)

Life is good when the sun is shining and nearly finished projects can get their first test ride :). Took the camera with me for some pictures. Bike is nearly finished now. Need to fill in some paint on the seatstay pantographs, new skewer nuts and a 3ttt cap for the stem. Also waiting for a concor saddle, with fresh perforated black leather. The white one on the pictures is for testing only. Bottle cages have to be added too.
Carbon seatpost doesn't look bad in the end, in combination with the black tyres and cockpit/shifters:
I realy like the combination of 3ttt stem, bars and shifters
Martelly is a Belgian brand from Eddy Martens, top quality frame builder. Fairly unknown and underrated, but beautiful frames...
Painter did awesome work with the masking.
Took some time, but I'm satisfied with the result, coming from this wreck:

That cockpit is really nice. I have those exact components - just wondering if I should use them instead of the Soma Hwy Ones I have on my similar build...
Top, top work!
