That looks fantastic! How light is it? Do you save much weight by using the carbon fiber? It looks like you have a sheet of solid aluminum on the base, depending on how thick it is you may want to cheese it out. If it's thicker than 1/32 you might be using up all the weight you saved by going carbon. Did you purchase the frame components that way or did you have them custom done?
