Just received the frame as well! It looks very nice. The plan is to build it over the winter. I am still waiting on the rims to build some wheel for it.

I received my frameset and noticed 2 things about the handlebars.

First, the special spacer that connects the regular spacers with the handlebars doesn't sit very flush with the handlebars. I am a little worried that this could put concentrate stress on one spot and eventually lead to failure. Do you think this worry is warranted?

Second, this is more about the computer mount, but I ordered the 90mm stem length version of the handlebars and if I wanted to install the computer mount it would probably just barely fit before it would interfere with the special spacer I mentioned before. If anyone is thinking about ordering the 80mm version of the handlebars I am not certain that you could mount this computer mount. Another thing is that adjusting the length of the mount will be a funny thing since if mounted in the very forward position that you are forced into due to the stem tongue sticking out it has about 50mm of space between the handlebars and a smaller form factor computer like a wahoo bolt (I guess only 20mm if you have the 120mm stem). I have no idea if the computer mount bolts are in the same position for all handlebar lengths but something to be aware of.

I have the same issue. It doesn't look flush at all.

I'm having the same issue actually, I thought it was because of my cable routing through the stem at first.
I applied a bit of pressure on the bars before tightening them but I can't recall if that "fixed" it, I'll post a pic of the current situation tonight.

Yep, the "garmin" mount could be better in terms of adjustability and I went with mine all the way to the top of that top spacer. If I needed to slide it more backward I would cut the part of it since it's cheap carbon copy. And I'm pretty shure that my handlebars came with silver mounting bolts for the garmin mount (but I'll check and report). And I thing my mount comes with two slits for the bolts, not one long cutout.

Yeah, I had to use the silver bolts since the black bolts that came pre-installed were too short when you used the plastic spacers.

Congrats on a new frame! I'm looking forward to see how your bike goes when built.

Yeah, thanks. However, I'm not going to fully build the bike all that soon. I have to pick up my PM crank (Magene P505) from my parents' place the next time I visit them since they wouldn't ship to where I live (I bought it from the official Magene website, not Aliexpress). I just put the frame together to check if everything is okay.

I think the problem with the handlebars is that the lip or tongue of that special spacer is contacting the handlebars. I have seen some markings where it contacts the handlebar and marked them in green. I guess the simple solution is trying to file this spacer down until it sits flush.

On the older bikes that spacer was plastic so it just bends to adapt to the underside of the handlebars.

I just checked with my setup. One side sits flush, the other doesn't...

i did file down the spacer quite a bit.
looked like the pictures from above, no way it would sit flush.

otherwise my frame realy rides fast and fun and the build and quality of the frame are feeling really good, e.g. not cheap.

the bar is sufficient stiff on the horns, but you can feel the flex if you are sprinting for the first time.

The Order was placed on September 29 2024 and arrived around Oktober 15 2024 in Germany.
Model S, Size large; Cockpit 420 / 110
i am 1.85 Meters. Size feels good, Medium would be way to low and short on the front [i am an recreational rider.]
Regarding the Seatpost, it is nearly slammed.
so you could theoretically get away with a longer Cockpit? and more spacers?
