Black king to match the seat post clamp.
With the rather svelte tube profiles and clean frame joins the ATAC looks over-powering with it's chunky welding and agricultural looking pinch bolts. The Syncros looks better out of the two.
It would look much better and cleaner to have a stem with a noodle as the GT cable hanger detracts from the clean aesthetic of the Chris King headset. You could fit the black Chris King headset to help hide the hanger, but I like the contrast of the silver cups vs. the blue & black on the frame & forks.
I guess those GT stems do look a little plain and underwhelming. The earlier ones where the joints were penetrated like the top tube/seat tube intersection always looked cool, but they were all quill stems.
Wonder if a steel stem such as a Salsa would work as the proportioning of the tubing would compliment the frame...
