What's the seat height BB to top of the saddle?

It's 84cm.

Are you at the minimum insertion line or do you have a little post left? I need about 86cm with the 59.5 frame size but prefer not to go to the 62.

No, you should be OK at 86.

@Rodebaron51: The F8 is growing on me and I am thinking about buying the frameset myself one day soon. I was wondering if the F8 Team Sky comes with "Sky" decals on the frame/seat post that can be removed or are they covered by clear coat? Thanks.

Hi, the extra SKY and Jaguar decals can be removed... they are just added after paint job with normal decals.

I now have app 3000Km on my F8. Also quite some KOM's on strava ;-)
In-between also 6 rides on my C59 (and a couple of MTB rides, but they don't count).

The difference between the F8 and C59 is hugh!

F8 much stiffer and more responsive... cornering is so much easier.
Uphill it is better.... My feeling is now that the Hyperions Ultra 2 on the C59 are too soft for me... thats also part of the stiffness feel. The Bore 35's are the way to go for me...
EPS.... simply love it! When I ride my C59 (normal SR), i have to work for shifting... F8 is just commanding. Biggest difference is front shifting... simply wow
Looks... I must say I am in love with the F8... C59 is not ugly at all, but no where near the F8
Even the bottle cages are better on the F8... the Aurundels are very tight and massive compared to the tune....

In short; happy I own this machine.

Other F8 reports?
Like to learn if I am not just dreaming....

Nice write up, I love my F8. I now building a DiVO ST which I think will be the first on this site but its going to amazing.

If you go with a glossy frame you will not be able to remove the decals as the are under the clear coat. I wish I would have gone matte but live and learn... My DiVO is going to be a combo of both.

There are a couple of these around my parts and they look amazing in the flesh! This one also looks amazing - especially with Campy on it. Well done!
