I say budget because I've just about 3 grand in it with a Stages power meter. I know that's not budget for some but for others that's what their wheels cost. Painted it myself, didn't want another all black bike. Still need to finalize stem height (cut steerer)

Someone over at Argonaut is doing a face-palm right now.

Huh, hadn't seen that (Argonaut) frame. Actually got the basic idea from this Speedvagen and had planned on painting the complete frame but got lazy.

Nice! I have this frame which I built up as a commuter. What do you think of the frame ridewise etc?

Budget with 9000? This place does make me chuckle.
That said, for the total cost and the subsequent build spec (and paint finish) it's excellent.
Keen to see how the wheels especially hold up a year or so down the line. How did you find the finish on the frame and fork? Any excess carbon that needed sanding back, etc?
