Well, this tells everything: some of the segments around here are own by Pro riders. No less then Romain Bardet, probably the best road French cyclist of the moment. I'm now a follower, very interesting to see his Stava log!

No, I don't think coupon can be send out. There is no invite that grants a discount. But sometimes there are special offers. I get my Premium account at MapMyRide till the end of the year. I'll watch offers till then.

I don't want to use multiple apps, I really want to keep it simple, within one app. So I'll probably need the premium account.

And lucky you to be able to be KOM , the place I live and ride is so full of strong riders that I'll probably never get one! And I'm 40, with a family, which doesn't help either to spend my life on a bike

No, it's part of Alltricks' Premium account

As I get a week before I can complete my bike, I thought I should post a picture. Here is a family picture 



You can (almost) see the Shelter tape. It's very conformal, so it is difficult to see.
I just wanted to add that I really like the angle in the seat tube. It enables to significantly move the saddle to the front when pushing on the dropper post. This should enable a better handling in technical sections. I'll confirm as soon as I can ride the bike!

It's a very nice upgrade compared to your previous bike!

I would still question the choice of frame. Why pick such an aero/race type frame when what you want is obviously a comfortable ride? This forces you to max everything: spacers, up-right stem, very high position of the brake levers. You could have picked a frame with a higher stack and set the cockpit in a more natural fashion.

Getting close!!

I've received my delivery from Poland (26Bikes.com). So I have taped my rear wheel and mounted the tire, Nobby Nic 2.8. I've adjusted the RD too.
Also, I've processed with some measurements. Here is a summary:
- Head Angle is 68.5° with my "old" 110 mm fork. Now I plan on 130-140 mm (Pike).
- BB height: about 30.6mm. There is indeed room to increase the fork travel a bit!
- Disc side chainstay clearance: 11 mm. That's plenty with a real 2.8 tire.
- Drive side chainstay clearance: 15 mm. That's because of the high position of the drive side chainstay.
- Seat tube clearance: an amazing 3 cm. They could have shortened the chainstay even more (and I use the short setting at 425 mm).

Pictures now!

What is missing:
- rear brake bleed
- apply protection tape (received)
- buy BB/crankset. I'm decided with Eagle, GXP, Boost. Yes, it's very expensive but I really can't see a GX here. I get 10% in one of my usual shop, on my anniversary, early October.
- Fix the dropper post hose with stick-on jagwire. I've opted for the cheapest option for now.
- Waiting for feedback from Peter on the rear axle (I've added 5 mm of washers for now, but can't be a permanent solution!).

The difference you see is most likely the VAT. About 20%.

I've experienced that in the past. I would check a French website I regularly use while traveling out of France and see crazy prices. Then, as I log in and prices get back to normal. Then I checked and the difference was just the VAT.

If that frame existed I would have bought it. As far as I know there is no such frame from a (reliable) Chinese vendor.
