Looking good!

Would you mind sharing how much you paid for the frame all-in, and how much the wheelset weighs?

Thanks!

For frame handlebar and shipping I paid 1170$ that is less than 1000€ I think the frame was 800$ . I still don't have the wheels with me but the seller sent me a picture and it say 1615 grams not super light but I hope them to be strong

Thanks; does that include a Ti fork?

No just frame, i have a carbon fork for this . I asked the price for a ti fork and if I'm not wrong it was around 250-260$

The wheels arrived today, they seem straight and true . The hub look heavy duty and noting special but they are not flimsy . what surprised me the most are the rim, they look beautiful and well made , all holes are clean and there is no random fiber around

Those look stunning - i couldn't see an option for 3k weave on the aliexpress page

After ordering seller contact you to let you choose the various options

Wheels look amazing, do you know the internal width?

And did you prepay the duty or on arrival?

I think it 23 mm internal 27mm external. I live in Spain and surprisingly I didn't pay any duty on them. The seller declared a value of 150$ without me asking for it any way

Thanks for the information, much appreciated

After been raped by Spanish custom the frame is finally here :):):)

Nice that. Come from Waltly or AliEx too?

It came from waltly, they made it with the same finish as the frame! It's not as light as carbon fiber one but lighter then alu

Looking good!

Are you expecting sub-9Kg final weight?

I hope so, i didn't made a spreadsheet but all the parts are quite light (beside the cassete that can be 100gr lighter and the brakes that are basic shimano) all the bolts are titanium , crank is a ultegra with single ring and 105 derailleur.

Haha! Coal Chamber :O

Ahahahah i moved a lot of old cd from storage and I have to decide to throw away quite a few of the shameful ones ;)

This is how it stands now I have to decide if I want to learn how long the chain should be and how to set gears or pass it to a professional to finish the job. I will need a mechanics anyway to cut the brake lines and route it inside the fork.

:-) looks like a great bike!

Have you considered a clutched rear mech to prevent chain drop?
