Fully internal Waltly Ti endurance bike

[bsharp77]

Thanks very much for pointing out this company.
Always wanted to try Ti, and having a short reach but longish legs has always made me want slightly tweaked geometry.
I see they do a fantastic looking model with integrated seatpost.
I'm thinking a model based on the TCR SL overall geo, slightly tweaked with shorter reach / higher stack, rim brake with mudguard eyelets and a screw in BB.
Could be my custom dream bike at an affordable price - will contact them now to start things off.

Will update as I find out more.

Nice! They can make almost everything, I'm sure they will be able to accommodate your needs.
Keep us posted

Finally the weather today allowed for a spin

Yes, I bought the ENVE in-route fork because in my opinion it is the most beautiful fork for custom builds, although it costs 3 times (or more) more with shipping than the Waltly's fork. Without a cut steerer, the fork weighs 428g, I think, with a cut steerer, I hope less than 400. It is best to watch this video. He posted this video after I received mine.

Mine cut is around 400 I think (not enve)
Today I got a chance to weigh it again.
Heavy pedals, two bottle cages, garmin mount and dirt
Next will be probably the xpedo ti pedals and an 60 gram ryet saddle

Day by day your bike looks more and more like mine, which I'll soon assemble =)))

That would mean your bike looks more and more like mine

Well, it depends on which side you look at it. What you want to upgrade to, I will already have in stock =))

Yeah that makes sense I suppose. What wheels did you choose?

And a night stroll, Knog blinder 1300 and Knog mid Cobber on light duties

As much as I had liked the wolftooth, it was too heavy.
So here comes a tune clamp of almost half the weight

[Hensem]

Please,let me know when you receive a rear axle,I'm interested to buy the same, because the Waltly's axle weight is 52g.
Yesterday I received a frame.You know,I'm so happy,better than expected.

I'm expecting it soon, it's already 15days.
Glad to hear that!

Some peculiar part from the abyss of Ebay;
Titanium front deraileur direct mount titanium concave washer and gun drilled screw.
Unfortunately the screw is too long,I'll have to touch it up in the bench grinder a bit
And the tune seapost clamp that replaces the wolftooth one.

Finally, the J&L thru axle is here and lives up to its promises.
29g for a rear axle is pretty sweet. Shame that the front one (supposedly a J&L as well in the listing, but another one was delivered) is not as light as expected
And the stock waltly axle for comparison
