That screw driver makes me feel uneasy. Mad respect though! 

Not a screwdriver. It's a plug-setter for the tyres. Sorta like an oversized open ended needle.

Deaore brakes have perfect stopping power, a bike mechanic at LBS complement my deore brakes even though they deal with premium rides all day! 

 

Still I would like to know what Max's rig set him back. That is a beautiful machine!

Just a question but how does this bike stay upright on it's own? Is it that awesome???

Slight push from behind, then pic taken as it rolls forward. That's my guess, given that Matt said there was a "little trick" and no photoshop and / or stick on the pedal.
