Hi guys. Starting to pull plans together for the build and was wanting to share my sketch for Di2 routing etc.

Please let me know if you think I am missing anything.

Hope this sketch helps others (I’m not great at art, but have put quite a bit of reading and planning into it).

All the best

Hi @guyc

Can you please let me know the model of Enve stem you are running? I am assuming it is still doing a good job for you?

Many thanks
Mike

Hi Mike

It's the Enve Road rather than the Aero. 120mm. Yes it's been flawless. No issues at all.

Lovely. What colour have you gone for?

10,000 miles on mine now and I still wouldn't have any other bike.

BDBL - the blue art decor. I was so torn as there are many colourways I would have been happy with, however my current bike is a stealth black, which I love, and I just wanted to get something more striking this time. I have seen a few in the flesh and the paintwork is simply stunning.

That's a lovely lovely colour. I very nearly went for that but budget called and said no

I hear you. Part of the rationale I took into this next venture is that I wanted to really get the frame of my dreams and not hold back, knowing that I could take my time with other upgrades into the future i.e., I will be putting my existing wheels onto this new build for the time being, plus will hold off on diving straight into an integrated barstem (partially for economics, partially for really needing to dial in the fit prior to getting something with pretty much nowhere to go if you are a little off on reach etc). I have intentions of keeping this frame for decades, just as I read admiringly of others on this forum who have done similar with their dream machines.

thanks for all your help Guy
cheers, Mike

It's a beautiful frame and you've chosen well. Be sure to put some pics up when you've got it all done.

Happy to help and please shout with anything else.

Hi, I building bike on same frame and same size :) I'm deciding which type wheels choice for rim brakes. I want Campagnolo bora 35/50 but I'm dont know if buy tubular or clincher version. Why do you chose clincher version? Do you ride with this wheel from long hill (10km and more)?

Extremely late to the party (and Calnago's gone too); A wonderful, conscious build. I'd be on a 56s too, I see. If the stack measurement is frame only I'd be on 10 mm less topcap+spacers than on my rim brake Specialissima. One Q: What is your seat height? Mine's 81 cm, and if it fits you could take mine for a spin while I continue my drooling at yours.

RIP to the main man indeed, a sad loss.

Saddle height is 815mm, so we could easily swap and my drooling would be equal to yours! Thanks for the very kind words.

Thank you - 5 years old now and still nothing I'd rather be riding.
