Lighter than expected:

Also PF30, which wasn't expected. And means I get to play the "waiting on a bottom bracket" game again :(

A competent builder can tap T47 threads in a PF30 shell. There’s a YouTube video on how this is done properly. I have a T47 and with a CK T47 BB it’s free spinning and noise free. I also got the CK grease injection head for the BB. Twice a year I remove the crank and inject fresh grease (cheap green marine waterproof grease) through the BB bearings. New grease goes in and the nasty black grease comes out. Will proper maintenance the T47 BB will likely outlive me.

Oh, I'm actually one of the few who is a fan of PF30. Especially in a BB that started life as a round tube. I never had a peep out of my delrin BBs in the T2.

Seconded. PF30 in a Ti frame is quite good, particularly when paired with a delrin BB.

^Is that a joke? Please don't ask for him to come share his opinion here...

The frame is setup for electronic only.

Looks awesome & plenty of drop. What topper is that?

It's a Ritchey topper. The graphics are lasered on top of the black finish, so a steady hand and about 10 minutes with a new razor blade cleaned it up.
