New Scylon arrived from Contender Bikes in Salt Lake City, Utah, last week. Some great deal on frames. This one was USD6000 down to USD2500. The Di2 parts that I needed came to 1000 pounds cheaper than I could get either in the UK or here in the UAE.

Seatpost still needs to arrive and then atop that will go the 125g Flite Carbon saddle recently purchased. Weight so far is 6.7 kg (15lbs) minus the seatpost and saddle.

Time RTM stem and titanium bolts
Time ERGO bars
Supacaz black and white bar tape
Scylon XL Frame (French Edition)
Lezyne black/white cages (final cages undecided yet but these look ok)
Time Classic carbon seatpost
Selle Italia Flite Tekno Flow
Di2 groupset with Rotor 3D Aldhu cranks and Q rings
Lightweight Meilenstein wheelset with Continental GP5000 tryes

What a beauty.. Congratulations! You have an awesome Time fleet (that RXR paint scheme is one of my favourite). But how come seat post didn't come with the frame?

@ miltmaster3: Where's your new Scylon? Can't wait to see it!

I was away for a few weeks and so the shop didn't ship the bike until I asked them to so nobody really checked the box for the seatpost. I was sent two bars instead. All fixed and the post arrives tomorrow. On goes the saddle and off I go for a ride. More pictures to follow!

Agreed Llanberis the paint scheme was love at first sight and it was just a question of finding one and kitting it out along with other bikes and bikes for the Missus etc. Having two identical RXRs is very cool and the matching Time kit as well (in the days when they would only ship if you had an address in France). Luckily I did.

Siiiiick, congradulations! I love how they reveal 3k pattern at the top tube and then exteneded it to the seat mast, looks really sexy. :thumbup: You went for the non-AKTIV fork? Are those 4 dropouts at fork / frame still CMT inserts?

Yes non active to save weight! All the other the same as the old frame I did not notice any changes! From rim to disk version
