Nice colours! Now I am jeaolous u guys have such nice colours and I went to a "conservative" one.

hehe next time you know what to do. I build my previous bike 10 years ago with a chinese frame and used matt black. so this time i went for the opposite :D

Do Western branded frames also Flex when they're considered lightweight?

As long as it is resistant, doesn't break and my amateur level doesn't make it flex while pushing, whatever :). The lighter the better

Yeah I am not too concerned.  As a whole, the frame seems solid and strong.  One of my teammates had a Trek Boone that you could press the middle of the top tube and it would flex.  I think it is the nature of a wide tube diameter and a thin wall.

Little update, received pictures of the paint job of my frame. Sadly it apparently will take another 30 days until it arrives. But im happy how it turned out. Bought a gold KMC chain and brown leather bartape to go with it. Now i need to find a brown sadle to match it.

Nice colour.

What colour code is this?
