Nice stealth build! How does the frame ride? Are you racing on it? I'm thinking about the 066sl for my next frame.

Hi Tom, nice build! Is that a 54 size?

I'm also building up that frame - most parts are sitting on my desk in front of me - but my Farsports wheels are still in China as of today :)

Cheers

Will be racing on it this season yes. Was out in Mallorca a week ago for 10 days with it and I am extremely impressed with how it handles in the corners..

Very nice. You're not much taller than I am, how are you liking the 54cm?

Hmmm. You're making me question my frame size now. I'm about 174cm and comparing the frame charts of the fm066sl and my current frame, I'm getting that I need the 52cm frame. Do you have a really long inseam, or what?

That just looks a solid and very functional build, and the frame looks like it fits you well.

Alright, wasn't sure wether to go 54cm with 110 like I have or a smaller frame with more seatpost and longer stem..?
