I also vote for getting a new fork from Airwolf.

Please let us know what happens.

Q -> the headset scrubbing/spacing issues seem to come down to tolerances due to the paint around the headset area?

On my bike that is what I did based on what I saw from Airwolf.

Q -> Ok, so original headset bearings, original c-clip/ ring and not the blue Cervélo one? Airwolf bearing cap (that sits between bearing clip and the spacers?

There is no race on the bottom of the fork. Upper used the one that came with the bike I think.

No fender mounts - race bike. Could run some of the no mount needed types.

bikercu - that is good!! Same as my experience.

Yes - I actually used a mix of Cervelo and Airwolf spacers with the alu Cervelo stem. The carbon stem they sent is ok but for gravel I don't mind having a bit more weight for piece of mind. My Aspero 5 came with a alu stem not carbon.

Mine is Di2 - no issues.

Weights are pretty close. The Airwolf is a 1x but it has heavier wheels. Almost everything else is the same. We have a VB-168 and it does not feel as "lively" as a SL7. This bike feels really responsive. When you give it power it really accelerates!

Got the "spacer" from Airwolf this week. Useless - did not even fit. Bike is performing very well. It's a great bike - really comparable to my Aspero 5.

The internet lol

Except for the fork issue this is a very good frame in my opinion. It did take a lot of extra parts to get it to the place we wanted but it is really good so far.

14
The frame does not come with any stickers.

Good question - the bearing that is in the bottom is the one I posted earlier.

The tire size on it right now is 32 but it can take up to 42 no problem.
