Nice! That looks longer than 110mm, maybe just angle of the picture? I only mention it because I bought a Deda 110m to put on mine which is 110mm, but it was a total brain fart moment as it's already a 110mm stem on mine... 
I sent you a trust message yesterday about tyres as well Berger

Maybe as I have oval bars and black bar tape.
Email me randomblokekarl at hotmail.com I'm not sure what my trust email would be as I've not used it for maybe 10 years!

My Bianchi in it's element, at work. Only Sora groupset, but changed wheels for Campagnolo Zondas.

Zonda high five!
To be honest I didn't really notice much difference from my Aksiums today besides the fact the freewheeling noise is basically non existent compared to the angry bees of the Aksiums. Hopefully that was more the fact it was super cold today than anything!

The current stable:
So much awesomeness on a bike. Change is blinding on the di2 and lightness is immense. Can't wait for the weather to pick up though!
Trainer bike... Canyon Endurace AL 6.0 105 groupset. Comfortable setup, great for the trainer. Has pedals now
Got this back tonight
Carbon Grand Canyon CF SLX 9.9 Di2
Arrived and the right hand XTR Di2 shifter wasn't working properly, so had it repaired. It's a peach. Auto sync and changing if you hold down the shifter, it'll changed the front and back at the same time to get you the next gear, rather than you having to do front and rear frantically when finding that next gear. Hnnng pedals are on their way... have the spds on the endurace/ trainer.

Awesome bike the aeroad... shame about your pics!
I think we need to enforce some OCP rules in this thread.
- No potato cameras
- Drive-side only
- Chain in big ring and smaller sprocket
- Cranks lined up with seat post or chainstays
- Side on, flat angle
If I was being strict I'd also say slammed stems so no huge spacer stacks and "erect" stems!

I ride my track bike on the road to get to the track.
But yeah the MTB above should go in the other thread.

Out of interest how do you find that? I would be way more tempted to do more track cycling if I could build up a single speed to ride down there rather than rent a bike each time..

Honestly, I find it pretty scary riding fixed gear with no brakes. Luckily, the velodrome is very close to me and I take it very steadily.
I don't know how the brakeless fixie hipsters do it, relying only on anticipation and rear wheel skidding to stop quickly. Actually, I think they just don't go very quick and have puny gearing!
I could store the bike at the track but I prefer keeping it at home. Another option is have a drilled front fork, fit a front brake but remove it before riding the track.
