Received my D50CU-33 T1100 wheels and they are sitting at 1.181g.
Michelin Power Cup 30mm ending up at 34mm.
The build is fine and the hubs are also nice.
Wasn't able to ride them yet, cause I'm still waiting for my frame.

Little minus: The surface (UD unpainted) is very sensitive, even finger prints are sticky and not easy to wipe away.
Guess I would change +20g for clear coat next time.

Awesome paint job.

I ordered two frames, one ud black and one painted, not with a bit so fancy colour.
I'm bad in Photoshop and even worse in explaining stuff to Chinese people, so....

Anyway, paid 4 weeks ago and no proper feedback from Vivian so far.
Asked for a timeline to get the frame shipped and she only sends generic answers.

And keeping in mind: OEM SL8 is around 700g, the X68 araing 840g, means 20% more material to cover up non-optimal layup pattern ... saving 4k on a frame

Ordered my frame in 56, wonderling how this sheme will look like

In case someone wants to have good solution for BSA:

SRAM Red E1 arms (308g, DUB)
Sigeyi AXO (110g)
Shimano chainrings (147g)

Total 580g

6
I got the SRAM RED E1 crank für 270$ new coming 310g, no-brainer.
The complete unit with powermeter and Shimano chainrings comes at 560g.

I will place my order this weekend.

Bike will be comopleted with Ultegra Di2, SRAM Red E1 crank, Sigeyi Axo powermeter, EXS handlerbar and a 50mm carbon spoke wheelset from Peter.
Expect the wheight around 6,8kg.

Hopefully the frame will be just as stiff as my SWORKS SL6

I ordered the same set, let's see.
In theory carbon spokes are stiffer

Same here, really disappointed at this point with the support from Seraph...

I'm pretty confident that's the same person as F-C now after seeing the Chinarello's as well. Painting is usually included and you just pick the tier 1/2/3.

What are the weights and prices for the grades, especially for the top one?

I'm about to order to Germany (Munich).
In case someone wants to pair up to split shipping fees, feel free to contact me.

Thanks folks!

I'm sold to TanTan, only have to clarify the paint options.

13
What's likely to be the better choice, this one or the one from taiwan eisen?

This is the color pallete available for this frameset... It also seems that SEKA is made there too.

No fancy metallic colors?
