I was hoping someone from this forum gets one and reports some of the frame's details. What a fantastic frame. Congrats!

Thanks Maddie!

Any rim brake only framesets available? That is a fine machine

godzuki teased us years ago. He has a rim brake frameset in Japan. No idea if he ever got around to picking it up and building it.

What surprises me is that the disc frameset is much lighter than the rim frameset

Surprising yes ...scary BIG yes

I mean at some point I start to wonder

But looks like a beautiful frame & finish

The rim brake version is nearly 10 years old. Other than paint I don’t think they’ve updated it

The new sld model is rim brake only, just like every new model these days.

size S color Blue/Green
Made in Japan.

I wonder if it can be ordered with custom paint only logos + 1-2 layers of clearcoat and it may be possible to go sub 500?
that would be a killer - maybe it is time to ask yonex distributor in poland

It would likley be 50+g lighter if it didn't have the metallic flake paint and instead had a matte black like the aethos.

Hello.
So if paint would stay in the weight of the extralite Scr58 frame or the old Ax lightness vial evo they were about 600 gren size S, because the 2018 models increased the weight.
I will keep an eye on the assembly of this bike.
All the best

This looks awesome. How did you manage to get your hands on one? Only sold in japan?
