I was wondering what frame and fork weights people have been getting. Thanks for any info.

Duo painted XL 1254 gram frame and 490 fork (integrated routing)

Cool, look forward to all the builds!

Carbonda will send me a replacement bottom cover/guide.

I'm suggesting that this part is at 7:00 and might need to be at 6:00. I've never seen one that didn't point straight down.

I understood, thanks. If I look at other bikes for example the red one in this topic the derailleur is the same.

It looks identical to my other bike with ultegra rear derailleur.
Could be wrong, maybe you can share a picture so I can compare?
Shifting is perfect. Maybe the B screw is different? That could explain the position difference I guess.

In the pics, the only difference I see is the angle in the derailleur hanger. And when compared to other frame pictures (from this topic and the dolan tuono it looks the same.)

One more thought is that I run an 11 28 cassette, it might be better with a 11 32 ish since that would need more B tension hence moving the derailleur downwards.

What you're telling me suggests a certain disconnect between the sales department and the shipping department. My salesperson was "Katie". The inclusion of spares was something I dealt with in specific terms. I asked for (and paid $5 for) an extra derailleur hanger. Likewise with an extra seat post clamp (which she forgot on the final invoice, and has promised to include free of charge). I don't know if being specific screwed up any hope for getting a grab-bag of spares, or not.

I'm not planning to use a front derailleur, and my rear mech will be SRAM AXS, so the only reason I'd have for removing the bottom plate would be to increase access when routing the rear brake hydraulic hose, though I suspect that won't be necessary.

My gut tells me that querying "Katie" about the contents of a bag of spares would be fruitless...or perhaps even counterproductive.

I don't have any issue with mentioning to her that I heard from someone else that the guides on the bottom bracket cover can be fragile and broke during installation, and that I would love to have a spare. We can see what happens.

While we're talking I have a couple of questions based upon your previous response. Do you think the SRAM 12-speed rear mech for a 10-36 cassette will conflict with the chainstay? And when you talk about the trouble you had with the rear thru-axle on the cassette side, do you mean on the cassette side of the bike (right) or the cassette side of the right chainstay (left)? Was the part you swapped part of the derailleur hanger assembly on the right chainstay, or something else?

My frame has to be painted so it's not likely that anything will be shipped for a while.

That works for me

I did not specify the exact spares, other than the derailleur hangers. As I've read previously with the 696 frame they have some sort of "spare parts bags" that are included and I got 2 of them. In both bags were 2 derailleur hangers, several plugs, screws, cover plates and the screw in bit where the thru axle goes In.

This is easy:
Green circle is the part. Blue arrow the screw which attaches it to the frame and the red arrow the tip of the axle. Just unscrew axle, undo screw, replace plate and vice versa with new plate.

As to the sram rear derailleur, don't know. If there are no particular handles it should fit I guess.

Can you clarify this with a picture? I don't see how this can be a problem.

Also, here's a bike that has a similar top-tube hole for Di2 cables. Although that's pretty much the only bike I can think of that has it.

Will do as soon as I get the chance. the problem is the lever of the clutch interferes with the chain stay so keeps the derailleur further down/towards the floor than it should be for the smallest cog.

No I did not specify, I bought 2 extra derailleur hangers but I got 4. There will be a bag of spare parts, I'm not sure what is standard. Similar thing with my 696 gravelbike, I got a lot of spares from. Them.
if you have already ordered but it is not on its way yet you can just mail them to edit your order and add some specific parts. It is easy!

(and maybe if you're going to, would you be willing to add an extra bottom cable guide x2 for me? and forward them by the time they are here? I'll cover the cost)

Yes, it does. I asked for some extra hardware so I have a plethora of plugs, plates, stops, covers and screws 

Build finished today, left to do is cut the steerer and tape the handlebar as soon as I've got the fit dialed in.

Remarks:
The bottom guide for the front derailleur is hard to fit with wires etc, I broke off a piece while pushing it back in. This is the only thing not quadruple in supply.

The rear axle screeched like a bat out of hell, this ended up being the screw-in-plate (or does it have an actual name?) on the cassette side. 1 min fix with one of the supplied extras.

A grx rear derailleur will NOT fit with the clutch in the on position. This interferes with the rear chain stay (I use one since I intend to run a 34 or even bigger cassette when riding with the kids in a trailer).

The paintwork is nice. Not perfect but really good to my eyes. The photos don't do the blue colour justice.
