Title: New Frameset Day. Joining the Chinese carbon cult
Post by: fullofdays on October 18, 2015, 07:23:47 PM

Just recieved my RB-01 from peter @ carbon speed.  Very impressed with the build quality of the frame and fork combo.  I'll post pics of the build as I go.  Lots of questions still on groupset.

Thanks for posting, we need more road build threads on the forum.

That is an awesome looking frame, man! I'm basically a newb when it comes to road bikes, but is the RB-01 more of a racing/aggressive frame or more of a relaxed/cruiser frame? Hope that makes sense, like I said, not really up on the road bikes.

Thanks!  The geometry is very similar to a Rouxbaix.  very endurance geometry focused for stable and predictable handling and Zertz vibration damping inserts.
