Thanks for the copper paste advise I did use normal grease. Most of the bolt I used are titanium as well but bottom bracket and headset are aluminium so I'll buy some copper past and put it on. I had 2 small ride on it and is really reactive and comfortable. The geo seem to work for me and after adjusting the saddle it seem really good now.

This looks awesome. Great build.
I’ve been watching this thread closely because I ordered a gravel frame from waltly a couple weeks after you - and used this as a gauge for how far off mine was. Landed this week and it looks really nice.
You may already be all over this but make sure you use a copper paste grease anywhere there is metal on metal contact, especially if it is aluminum to titanium contact.
Normal grease is not enough to prevent the accelerated oxidation and bonding that occurs between ti and other metals.
Looking forward to hearing how it rides!
