    I am bloody excited about this thing

    Got a set of HED Ardennes propping it up at the moment with the 26mm SWorks Turbo Tyres coming up at 31mm on the + rims - still with a load of clearance either side.

    I have high hopes that waiting for the right moment to convert to disc road has prevailed....

  • nice cages! cc/ @6pt

  • Bloody nice looking bike right there. What's cages?

  • Nice!

    Have had a few of these come to me at the studio unpainted straight from the factory - they are deffo one of the better quality frames from the bigger manufacturers that ive worked with that have sent frames direct to me in a raw carbon state from the factory.

    All the little alloy parts that come in a seperate bag like the head tube cable guide fittings and axle mount parts that fit into the dropouts are all so well made, and fit in place perfectly. its a really well thought out frame.

    I find it annoying that they dont colourmatch the headset cover piece thingy on the stock frames, but I'm told this is because the factory refuse to do it, as they are a bit of a pain to paint due to the material they are made from being quite porous, and as such need several coats of primer to get them into a state that can be painted.

    I have a rim brake version in the works that i want to build into a lightwight bike for mountain trips in the summer. Am torn between cable or Di2 R8000.
