Hello all, I have started my second and final build (for a while);
An older version of the modern day Pre Cursa we all know and love .. well most of us. I must say for a 58cm it looks very small, I may have to measure the frame to confirm my suspicions. I am 5'11 at the moment. It would've made more sense to buy a 56cm frame but this bike is going to be a permanent ride and since I'm still a growing teenager (15 years to be exact), I thought it best to go for a slightly bigger frame in case I grow any taller.
I plan to have all black components; seatpost, saddle, crankset, front & rear wheel. The frame came with Alpina carbon forks un-drilled so I may either have to have them drilled or swap them for a pair of drilled carbon forks.
The frame is lighter than the 55cm "Cinelli" frame I bought a few weeks ago. Here are some pictures of the frame as bought today.
