Thanks for the comments!

The bar was bought on aliexpress, its shape is quite similar to a 3T aeronova I think.

Oh, and the tops are untaped now - more aero! So the pink had to go to the drops.

Great build Marin :thumbup:
How does it ride ?
I'm looking for a new frame to build with Chorus11 and Zondas so this could be it. How much did it cost shipment and all (could you drop me a PM if you are from Croatia ?)

It rides really well, I'd buy the frame again.

Finally got around to taking halfway decent pics:

Note the new seatpost with less offset, Doval chainrings, and, below with brand new Farsports 25 profile/23 wide wheels (1214g):

I also updated the 1st post with these pics.

Looking great Marin!
Are you using same stem (seems longer then 110mm) ?
I ordered mine few days ago from Hongfu (Ican did not had BSA on stock) ... hope it'll arrive soon.

This bike is SMOKING!

How about a shot from the front? I'm interested in giving these bars a try - it looks like the drop is similar to a 3T or FSA compact, is that accurate? Were you given any specs on the advertised mm drop on aliexpress? How's the flex, if any and any concerns about durability?

Thanks!

Nice build!
Looking forward to hearing how the low profile wheelset handles, which rim/hub set up are you running?

Thanks! Paul

Thanks!

I'll see if I can dig up or take a new full frontal shot. The bars are 218g for a 42 width and don't really flex much. I'm 80 kg and put out a decent amount of power, but I'm no monster sprinter (yet :D).

The stem has indeed now grown to 130mm. I also have a 0 setback post, but I like the mild setback better than none at all.

Paul, the rims are Farsports 2014 model year 25mm tall 23mm wide clinchers with high-temp resin brake tracks, 20/24.

Hubs are Farsports Edhubs (Bitex ultralight), spokes are Farsports Delta, and heavier Pillar Aeros drive side.

Beautiful bike and a great choice in components.. Give us a review of the frame and wheels went you get some miles in. I am looking at the same rims and contemplating building a set. I am about the same weight as yourself, so I need a stiff wheel on the back. :mrgreen:
