Also lots of Cervelos here too!

Got a shipping notification today! 🤞
That's good news! When did you order your frame and when did you pay the final balance? Cheers.
Any news?

I think ncr commented that he already received his frame last week. I also got mine two days ago - took exactly 12 days to California from when I got my shipping notification (Delivered in the end by Fedex Home Delivery, not express). All is well except for some minor scratches and scuffs which I found odd for a brand new frame, but I'm not too concerned. Also, the frame came in a new, smaller (and not as nice :oops:) box.

Hoping to see a decent influx of Seka build-logs in the coming weeks. Will try to get mine up soon :)

As l3eans mentioned: Frame arrived on Sep 16. Took ten days to arrive in Germany.

Currently trying to source all the parts for the build. 💸💸💸

Hi, could you tell me how much you paid shiping + taxes to Germany? Which company made the delivery?

I've received the tracking number today.

For those of you who have built the bike with Di2 (r-8100), which length of e-tube cable have you used ? (for a size M frame)

That looks almost exactly the same as the build I was planning.
It's stunning, and I'm thinking of an RDC again now 😂

What does it weigh?

What does it weigh?
15.4lbs (30 ml sealant in each tire, pedals/garmin mount/bottle cages incl.)

Frame weighed in at 892g (S) and uncut fork 393g. Looks like they are running a bit heavier than advertised.
Current wheels are Light Bicycle AR56 w/ DT240s (~1470g). I also have some 35mm Farsports Feders w/ Carbon-ti hubs for climbing duties that will probably knock over 200g off the build, but currently waiting on a 10-33 1290 cassette.

I'll try to have a semi-detailed build-log up soon. Wasted a whole week daydreaming about the frame, furiously checking tracking info, and then finally building it so I got a lot of work to catch up on :oops:

This is mine. Love the first month of riding it so far. Still swapping around and changing components while waiting for a Favero PM to arrive.

Well it's a great looking thing so I hope you enjoy it.

Mine would be an M with WR45s on carbon Ti.

I can't get anyone to source a cervelo soloist so maybe I go back to this option 😆
