I've yet to see any conclusive evidence to show that even something as stiff as the Cannondale or new Specialized cranks actually impart a measureable performance increase. I got a set of Cannondale cranks with my bike and even with the removable spider, so you can swap between 110 and 130bcd, they're stupendously light and apparently very very stiff... but I don't find myself going up the road any faster on these than the 6.5lb PowerCranks on my training bike when I have the 'lockout' (aka fixed crank mode) on.
I just figured sram red cranks would match colours better, trust me I'd never ditch those FSA cranks
 
Here is my baby... Im in love. I have been riding this bike for several years now. Climbs like a dream, descends like a rocket and most importantly fits like a glove!

Stem spacers have been removed now and saving for a 7900 gruppo.
You own two of these? lucky so and so!
 
If you have two of those, you have your support car right behind you. Its just a matter of a quick switch and a latte and then back on the road! ;)

This is a stealth looking bike, love it. Nice long stem! Are you going to lose a few of those pacers? Have only ever seen one Guru in Melbourne.

Thanks!

The stem is a 110, my last bike had a 120 but the geometry of the Guru called for a 110. It just works for me.

I will definitely loose some spacers. So far with the snow I only have 3 rides on her and the feel is unbelievable. When the roads get where I can start to ride regularly and I get ride of my winter weight I will start switching the spacers around until I find the exact height, then the final cut. I always weight a little longer than needed for the final cut. you can always cut more but you can't put it back.
