I've checked CSG Europe and in 165 mm lenght there are only solid Hollowgram crankarms. Higher models start at 170 mm.

Finished the build, converting a 105 donor model to Ui2. Hovering at 7.4 ready to ride with 28s. Just need to trim the steerer and bleed the brakes again and its good to go. Very happy with the outcome


Did 70km on it this morning and it felt pretty good, quite flighty handling thoughImageImage

Looks good! But what do you mean by "flighty handling"? Could you compare it to the previous gen Evo?

I was wondering the same...

Also, what bars are these? They do a good job of hiding wires and hoses, they look a tad like Canyons...

Here's some other views of the bars. They are the ones that were linked much earlier in this thread, generic Chinese and seem to be based on the canyon cockpit. I picked then as they are the only ones I could find that had ducts to hold the cables that exited them just above the frame port.

They seem to be very well made but a bit too solid at 385g, I'll wear that for some extra safety marginImageImage

I can’t compare in the handling to previous gen SS. I just came off a TCR which is a race handling and I’d say the SS is a touch more sensitive and sharper steering. Coming down a big hill from my place it had the same nervous instability the TCR has on the same hill where it feels like it could go into a tank-slapper at any moment.
On the way home going over the same exposed bridge it actually started a front-end shimmy which was quite concerting; not sure if that’s the deep wheels or the handling so I’ll withhold judgement until I’ve had some more rides on it

The wheels are light bike 56mm deep x 30mm wide with Novatec hubs. They came in at 1,535g and cost AUD1,032 landed so I’m very happy with them

I changed the colours halfway through the order to get the white graphics once I saw what the frame would look like; I even bought a new black and white Rudy helmet for the occasion, taking matchy matchy to a new level

Seems to me that SS 2020 paint designs have somehow copied Time AdH's 2018 paint designs. Even the small logo at the top tube.
