First gravel ride on the ISEN since building it a couple of months ago. 140k on the Vic Rail Trail, Mansfield to Tallarook. The bike was comfortable and super stable really enjoyed riding it.
Built up with Ultegra Hydro, Zipp wheels and finishing kit with 35c Mitchelin Power Gravel Tyres.
The only issue i had in building was that i needed to space out the BB as the chainset came too close to the chainstays. Is this an issue others had?
Anyway keep up the good work!

The down tube really makes the frame.

My ISEN arrived in Melbourne this week and I’m suitably impressed. Love the massive shaped down tube, the paint job and the badge... can’t wait to get it built up.
Service and shipping was well organised, cheers ISEN Workshop crew!
Unfortunately I didn’t factor in the $350 customs charges oh well..

I have the order for ISEN No.21. Not sure how i'll build it up yet but I've been enjoying the thread and especially all the pics detailing the build.
Initially i was really unsure about what size to go for so i ended up getting the guys at my local bike shop to set up a bike fit for the geometry of both the 53cm and 55cm frames. It was done on the Retul system. My current frame is a 54cm (M) Scott foil and previous frames have generally been 54-56cm. The 53cm felt the best with a 110mm stem and 25mm layback seat post, although it sounds so small to me... Anyway i hope it works out.

Looks like a great project. I own a place in leyton and any investment is cycling infrastructure would be brilliant.

I dont really want to post. Sorry.
I had the same problem with the same chainset. Had to put a spacer in.
