I used to have one of those on my bike. The straps have a tendency to wear out and eventually would likely snap. I took mine off when it was hanging by a few threads.

Seattube strap came unstiched from the bag on mine, most blamed the two complete toolboxes I carried in it.
I intended to repair/restitch it when needed but that was probably 18 months ago...
Looks awesome Nursie, a 56 or 58cm? Interested in how you find the DT R24/32 Spline (I think) wheels.

Spacker ring will come off over the winter at some point. Was looking at a CF SLX with a Aerocockpit before I bought it but decided to save the extra £800 or so.
Bah, throw it in the bin and use your pockets

That is lovely, especially the finish on the frame.

Lovely stable you have there!
I want to like the Cipo, and about 4 guys have them in the groups I ride in, but I can't fall in love them. I do admire the big mans confidence in his body right enough.
Orbea is also lovely, haven't laid hands on an OMR yet but have a MyO one coming in January in roughly these colours. I get to run Di2 through it, joy of joys.

^^ Nice stem
The Orbea doesn't look as nice but by gosh its responsive. the Cipo i've not jelled with yet, you need big power of which I don't have.
Enjoy your OMR. Mine will be off to Fat creations soon to have all the paint removed and the decals reapplied it's gonna be spesh!

Not for me sadly! Coming in to the shop for me to do a frame swap from an sworks Venge to the orca.
I only had the OMP Orca for a few months in the summer and my new Felt bike costs less than your frame alone.
Look man brought this by to show us and I'd love a bike at that weight, same as your orca I think you said?

How do you find the EPS @Shamrock ?
In comparison to mechanical Chorus I wouldn't say Record EPS shifts any better as it's already top notch on Campag's top mechanical groupsets. It is, however, effortless as you just tap the shift levers (located in the same places) to shift. There is certainly a satisfaction to both mechanical and electronic shifting but not ever having to worry about cable tension is good. Instead, you must worry that your bike is charged!
I think I could have equally been happy with mechanical Super Record on the Bianchi. It would have saved some grams but I feel on my Sunday best, electronic feels more luxurious.
