If anyone has a good source for these type of decals please share. I searched etsy but the ones which look cooler are not decals but frame protectors, and I'd rather have proper cut decals than a 'big partially transparent sticker'

I'm not sure you can reuse the wheels.
If I'm not mistaken your brakes are also not hydraulic which makes it not so suitable for integrated handlebars.
That budget will only fit velobuild if you take shipping into consideration. But you'll need to add the bottom bracket, probably handlebar tape, new cables and etc etc. People talk ok about their 268. Try it or check the 2nd hand market around.

Did you take off all your spacers? Lowered the stem (potentially inverting it)? This will make u faster than switching frame due to aerodynamics. Triban is honestly not bad at all for what it is

looks cool.
U still think position is ok? or do you feel stretched?

How much did u pay for the shipping of frame + wheels?

Looking great. Almost done in 1 day... impressive!

You could have used some dampner on the cables to avoid that rubbing sound. Not sure you are a weight weenie ahah Some ppl end up not putting it because of the 30g extra 

As regards indexation I don't think you'll have a major problem with it. Keep us updated and show us the final result on the road too eheh

OK! I see what you mean now. The seat post is quite thin and the derailleur hanger is "short" so you have nothing to push the screw against.

Hmm interesting. Though it's not mandatory AFAIK, it brings additional strength and adjustment. I am also planing on using an 105 mechanical groupset on it.

Is the hanger fix by rivets or screws?

In any case let us know what she replied

And nice specialized like colours

I just received my Frameset today. So far it looks good.

But I think there is one big problem. The front derailleur mount seems to small, so that the bolt from the front derailleur do not touch anything. I also can't glue the Shimano metal sticker.

Anyone have an idea what I should do now?
Did I do something wrong or is that a problem from the hanger?

But isn't that the 'tension' screw? That is not the one attaching the derailleur to the frame if I'm not mistaken

Great review. Wow that is one light frame. I really chewed on getting this frame for months. Ticks a lot of boxes but I ended up going in a different direction.

Yeap! I agree this would be the perfect frame for most of us. Chris/VB would just need to improve a bit the quality of the final product even increasing it meant increasing 100US or so.

For the price it's a very good purchase. I just wished he had an option like the SL version but the QA++.

You do you! i considered buying one myself for many weeks, and i'm not saying it's a bad frame, in fact i think it's a great frame! i was just detailing my thought process as i figured it could be useful to some.
Enjoy your new bike and post here about your experience and impressions!

For me that's actually what is more valuable in these forums. Analysing the different reasoning and mental model different people use to select frames/bikes/products. Question them and take my conclusions and decisions.
Thanks for sharing your inputs
