That's 3 ziptie's Farqui, one round the seat tube holding the other two in place.
The Cable's are Avid Flak Jacket's, Fezzy.
Sorry butted in, Very Contemparary bike you have there cbharping all the bell's and whistles.
Very Swweet bike and a nice build done on it. My compliments to the owner, and the builder. Really nice parts selection too. If you ever travel up to the bay area drop me a line in the nor-cal board and I can show you some of the great trails up here in nor-cal.
Oh yeah, wanted to mention that you should check for interferance between the seatpost clamp and the rocker arms under full compresison. With a small RFX frame the side of the rocker arm can hit the fat part of the clamp and your clamp looks like it might hit. Here is a pic of my RFX rockers at full compression. I had to take off the salsa clamp that was on there and run this thinner one.
Maybe someone else can chime in that owns a small 5spot and let you know if you should worry about it. That bike looks way too nice to have a big gouge in the rocker arm from something that could be avoided.
Then again judging by the build quality the person who setup your bike may have already checked for this.

Very nice build, I will need to do something similar to the zipties around the seat collar.
What camera did you use to take the photos? SLR? What lens? It might have to go on my shopping list.
my experience with the seatpost clamp interference issue, small rfx, has been limited to the six inch rockers.
anyone know if this happens with the small sixparfx?
As promised, here are some pics of the new bike in action. And lovin' every minute!
I think someone else had eyes on my new Turner...there was this bonehead following me around.
I made his day and posed for a pic with him.
