Was in the market for a new road bike and this bike ticked all the boxes. Built up with SRAM red axs D1 groupset, went with the Force powermeter simply because I think it looks better than the Red version.
Enve stem, seatpost and wheels with Zipp ergo carbon bars after sampling Enves options and not finding any of them comfortable.
Selle Italia/Enve saddle with titanium rails.
Vittoria Corsa N.E.X.T tires and Blackburn carbon bottle cages with Time expresso pedals.
And replaced majority of the bolts with gold titanium bolts from better bolts.
Very happy with the finished product, but do have a few more potential changes in mind.

Nice. This is how I’m going to go with my next bike. ENVE Foundation 45s and cockpit, Force AXS. Still not decided on frameset yet, but I’ll be coming from an ‘06 BMC SLT-01 to something aero-inclined. Your set-up inspires.

Awesome ride. I picked up an ADHX this summer and put some enve SES 4.5 ARs on it. Love the bike and the ride. With the foundations do you happen to notice if the front disc rotor is really close to the fork? I’ve only got a few mm of space and my LBS said it was “sufficient” but still seems really close.
