Spin off to the ‘roadie advice’ thread. I’d like to see the broad range of roadies and touring bikes etc that are in our community.
This is my 2009 Specialized S-Works SL2.

Ceramic bearing bottom bracket
Zipp 808’s (Powertap) or 303 tubulars with Ceramic bearings

Great fun to ride.
Peloton, hand built in Osaka with Dura-Ace (RD, shifters cranks) and Ultegra (brakes, FD), 600 hubs laced to RigidaDP18s. All internal cabling (i love that shit)
cable goes in here…
and comes out here.
Cant wait to convert it and powdercoat it brown.

Columbus EL frame, carbon fork.
Shimano 600 brakes and 8sp derailleur. DA shifter & cassette, Ultegra 10sp cranks & hubs, Shimano 600 48T chainring.

No shit? It sounds familiar though. If you see it again ask if they’ll sell. I want to corner the market!
Im on it. I might hand paint the ones that are on there.
