I soon hope to be adding to this thread as I pulled the trigger on a 58cm A9 frame. I have a particular high inseam (93cm) and needed a frame with a longish seat tube, ruling out the Velobuild options - but also wanted something a bit higher quality.

I was after a white frame with black components built and coincidentally they had one in my size finished and ready to go - below is an image from Ican which used their specific graphics, kinda like it.

Regarding tire size, they do indeed claim 28c as the max, even when prompted. However, they mentioned as well the clearance is bigger than the A22 frame and a fellow Chinertown member mentioned 32mm is not an issue on the A22 frame. I'll find out soon enough.

I also scored a set of wheels from Peter, advertised here in the forum, 44mm deep, 28mm outer width. Now onto groupsets, for which I think I will go the mechanical route, possibly R8000,
anything hydraulic or electronic seems out of proportion in price/value.
