Well,
This took some gathering and saving but its dont and I really like the way it fits and the way it rides.

These are really nice riding framesets.

My Build.
54CM Soma Stanyan frameset. Chased, faced, reamed and framesavered.
King headset
Ultegra 6700 shifters and crankset
Dura Ace 7900 derailleurs.
Tektro Brakes with Kool Stops
Thomson Stem and seatpost.
Brooks Team Pro saddle.
Jagwire carbon cables.
Ritchey WCS bars with Fizik Performance tape.
Fulcrum 5 wheelset with Vittoria Open Paves and Woodman Ti Skewers.

It was fun to put together and will be fun to ride.

Very Nice, but a real commuter needs fenders and chain guards IMHO

Thanks for all the coments. I changed the tires out for some Challenge Roubaix in 27's. Now that I have that sorted some fenders are on the list. Here in the midwest we get alot of afternoon rains and my 20 mile each way commute I can get wet. I have been looking at the hammered from VO. I am just not sure on size. I am stuck between 35 and 45mm.

Any thoughts?

I have those in stock, usually - the tires AND the fenders.

Definitely go with the 35s.

I've mentioned before that my shop rocks, haven't I?
(P.S. I can usually beat VO prices on VO products...)
