Stem seems to be doing it's work: place the handlebar where it needs to be. I like routing the front brake cable over the stem, like old road bikes do. I want to look at your Salsa ... Ala carte is my unicorn.

A very similar bike was raced by Dave Cullinan

Yummy

i had an Obed. I am curious about your opinion of the ride.

The Pace raises too much the front messing the geo of the bike.

Ultramarine blue. It looks good w gold and titanium grey.

White seatpost? Was ever any Klein top gun built w a white seatpost? It's a vintage build.

A gold mag21 or even Marzocchi would look good there.

size small. Love this color

I remember lusting after this bike at covent garden cycles. Bought a GT, something in between a tequesta and karakoram; nice but the stumpjumber was lighter and better.

150mm

Is that a head tube or are you just happy to see me?

The xc pro front derrailleur is a favourite. Along w/ the xc seat post. Dou you have the 8sp xc pro thumb shifters as well?

The fork alone rates high on any cool parts list and the ball burnished zaskar frame looks so good.

It looks great... except for the seatpost: i believe the bike predates that syncros by a few years. Anything single bolt w/ setback will look right. shimano, suntour, nitto... even kalloy will look better.
