That's great.

It really needs some nice black components to make the yellow really stand out :cool:
 
Love it, and yes black group set would finish this off nicely. The paint job should be the highlight - that is wow factor
 
cheers all - i had the exact same idea for the build which will be:

Headset: Chris King Black sotto voce threadless
Stem: ITM millennium - Black
Bars: Deda newton shallow (black)
Tape: Brooks black leather
Shifters: Campagnolo centaur carbon
Cables: campagnolo black
Calipers: campagnolo centuar (silver :oops: )
Cranks: campagnolo record carbon square taper
Rear Derailleur: Campagnolo centaur carbon
Front Derailluer: Campagnolo centaur
BB: Tifosi carbon
Chain: KMC gold
Seatpost: Campagnolo Record carbon
saddle: Selle italia turbomatic 2
Hubs: campagnolo record black
Spokes: DT swiss revolution black
Rims: campagnolo omega black
tyres: Mavic SSC

frame is fillet brazed , weighs 1700g

not sure of the TT decal yet but on the fork crown it's a landshark panto.
It also has a tt decal with a shark head, american flag saying "smell the bacon..?"
 
Picked up the frame this morning - looks in good shape!

The top tube decal says "Il Vecchio" which was evidently a custom bike shop in Seattle, America.
Tonight will see me do the following:
Fit the headset, stem and bars and "mock up" the rest of the bike.
Then a roll around the cul de sac :)
