not too bad for deep wheels, electronic group and no custom drilling and tuning. will weigh again with a feedback sports ultimate scale when it arrives next week.

well done :thumbup: I like it a lot. What was the wheel set weight and how do they ride? Also, looks like you are missing a top cap and possibly compression plug on the steerer!

Hi,

Could you please comment on tire/rim clearance with wide rims? I see that you have already used Zipp 404FC with this frame… did you have any clearance problems, especially in the chainstays? What size of tubulars were you using? 23mm? Did you have a chance to use 25mm?

Thanks!
AndreLM

Amazing looking bike. Are the rings really stiff enough?

thanks everyone!

plpete- i dont miss the plug and topcap. :wink: havent been using plugs and caps for quite some time on different builds. wheel weights on page 3, please check.

AndreLM- havent used 25mms on this build. 22s/23s. no problems with firecrest clearances also. very generous.

CBJ- no problems with the rings (have been using it on most builds before this also) for my riding. around 200km weekly, non-elite racer, 150lbs rider.

yes. feels very solid. braking feels a lot like the bora/racingspeed feel (pads braking on shiny brake tracks).
later when do more rides with it.
