Thanks.
I just took the chance to order one from carbonbikekits.  ;D

* 165 mm
* 24 mm axle
* spider 4x110 mm BCD

I am about to replace my Dura-Ace 172.5 mm cranks with it. Will keep the DA chainrings.
Just need to decide later on, whether I‘ll go for a spider PM or (new) Assioma.

I weighed the frame in size L (520) including the derailleur hangers and, big surprise, at 1090g it is well above the figures given. To be fair: winspace didn't define the condition in which they specified the weight. I expected this and am actually happy with it. I have the bike in Chameleon white and love the look and paint quality. i will post some photos when i catch a sunny moment (which is quite unlikley in nothern germany right now ;) )

If you like it, its weight doesn’t matter.  ;D

But for me it perfectly fits the image of those Chinese manufacturers always claiming too low frame and fork weights, unfortunately. Not that they’re the only ones (Factor, Trek, BMC, …)

Yesterday i recieved my T1550 Gen 2 Frame. I opted for the 520 with the longest stem available (125mm). Lets see how this fit works for me! Overall i like the quality of the frame, paint and frame accesories. Speaking of which: in the frame accesories box was this little wedge. Do you know what it's for? I never had this in my previous builds.

What’s the weight of frame and fork compared to the claimed values.
And what color did you get?
