Often brands have multiple product orders with factories throughout the year.. Perhaps you were simply unlucky timing wise that some other people ordered before you, and had theirs delivered from a previous product batch.. I know I am, with a different bike.. Similar story..

If its a shimano equipped bike that may also be the issue. They are having issues keeping up with demand for Ultegra and Dura Ace Di2 disc groupsets. My S5 was delayed because there was no groupset to go on the frame.

At least the module should be available if that's the case. The module doesn't come with any groupset. I haven't seen anyone got one yet so far.

Has anyone got a recent review? Finances should be sorted next month. I was going order a Venge however I've found a 51cm frameset.
Thinking that with
Full hrd etap & 50cl wheels.

I can't believe there are still no real world reviews on this bike!

I found a full bike online in size 47.. but 13K = Fthat. I was hoping 47cm would not be a popular size like 51 ..since I'm a tweener between those 2 I ordered the 47 module. I'd rather have more seatpost showing and maybe an extra stem spacer. (or two)
I've been hunting down a 47 for the past month. Finally got a Teammachine module for myself.

I was speaking to the rep about it and he said that this model year specifically they've had the opposite problem of running out of the 47's and 61's. Like others have said stock should be coming in February. If you are interested in the new etap at all I would hold out until closer to April/March.

My frameset module just arrived. Had a chance to look at it at my LBS and - as it has yet to be built - weigh the different components that are part of the module, which is size 61:
- frameset including fork, stem, thru-axles, seatpost: 2,375g
- proprietary handlebar (440mm): 245g
- saddle (Físicos Antares R1): 159g
- bottle cages: 70g each - 44g for the actual bottle cage and 26g for the aero component
- storage box (can be left out and is not UCI legal): 111g
- Elite bottles: 92g each.

The total frameset w/o bottles and storage box comes in at 2,919g in this size (61). I didn’t weigh small parts (screws).

With Shimano DA 9170 groupset (2389g), Enve 5.6 Tubular Disc wheels (1399g), tubular tires (450), Speedplay Zero Ti pedals (164g), and handlebar tape (52g), the entire bike should weigh just under 7.4kg.

I hope to confirm this when the bike is ready (am still waiting for components 🙄).

^... awesome.. would nice to see the individual parts (weights)of the module. I'll try to do that when I get mine, but I ordered the opposite end of the spectrum (47cm)

We have a 56 module available as well... solid looking frame. Saw a question about the handlebar and stem from someone else... they have to go together, but one can also run the stem from the SLR01 and RM01 and a handlebar of choice.
