Putting it all together

A few weeks ago, I got an e-mail from the Toyota-United Cycling Team. They were having a fire sale since the team disbanded. For a good price, I was able to pick up a Dura Ace gruppo. I started to put it on the bike tonight. It will take me a few nights to do it but here is the start.The bike in the stand - notice the new carbon handlebars.
Here is the crank - a 53/39 Hollowtech II.
A better look at the handlebars and the front brakes.
All the old parts - I will be installing these on my Trek since they are better than the components on the Trek right now.
I'll be doing a bit more tomorrow night as I put on the derailleurs and the shifters. I'll probably start the cables on Thursday. Fun, fun, fun...
