Where can I find information about the version with downtube storage?

Hello, someone tested trasparent frame protective layer? something with good glue without paint damages when removed? thanks
Yes, there is no storage space designed into the downtube. For forks, we will provide 2 versions. without bolt holes version fork is available.
just received my wheels from PetersCycle, here some pics.
the specs are:
Rim 35/40 mm waved, hookless with 25mm ID and 34 OD
custom hub with star ratchet 24H with sapim Cx Ray
weight is 1360 gr
with pirelli adventure 40mm, cassette 11-40, shimano mt 800 rotors, valves is 3260 gr as pics attached
so I ordered a YKYWBIKE 3/4 bib during the Anniversary sale and it just arrived yesterday.
The quality is so good, especially the Elastic Interface chamois.
One thing I noticed though is that I possibly derped when I ordered it, not knowing it was for women
But hey, it still fits great!
If you look at the Giant Revolt as a comparison to the 707 in a medium, the Reach is almost the same (3mm longer on the 707) but the Stack is lower on the 707 by about 11mm. I am 175 with roughly the same inseam and I think the 707 is a perfect fit in a Medium for me with a 90mm stem. I would even go for an 80mm, but not for the length, just to try the ride dynamics. I think if you ride a 56 Tarmac with a 90mm stem, then a 707 with a 90mm would be fine.
As far as cost is concerned. I think I paid about $1700 for both a 707 and 1056 painted and shipped to the UK during 2021 (so around C19 times when things were pricey). For me that was worth it for two decent bikes but you might disagree. I really like them both. The paint work is a bit 'meh' on the 1056 but I'm going to have that repainted anyway.
