I've got this frame on order and this has me concerned. Has anyone used a Reverse Components crown race spacer? It's 10mm tall and knocks 0.5deg off the head angle. On this frame that's 69.5-> 69.0deg. Thoughts?

I've never seen this particular one, but was thinking about fabricating the same item today. Buying this is much easier. Thanks for sharing.

It's not a Chinese CF frame, but meets all your other requirements.

Does it XL size frame? Can you measure please distance from center of BB to the top of top tube (along seat tube)?
Yes this is an XL frame, and it measures 47cm from the center of the crank spindle to the top of the top tube.

Oooh, I like the white one very much!

Can you tell us the weight of the complete bike?
20.73lbs.  Not bad for entry level components with a dropper post.

Tomorrow I'll bleed the brakes, and the build will be complete.

Hey man, I read that straight gauge spokes like the ones you are using isn't recommended for carbon rims and will void warranty. Is it true?
The spokes he's using aren't straight gauge spokes, they are straight-pull bladed aero spokes.

Yeah, looks good! Hope to see more pics!
I'll post some more pics when the build is complete. Right now it's becoming a source of frustration. I thought I had a plenty of Jagwire braided shifter housing, but it was brake housing. It'll be about a week for that to arrive,

The rotors should arrive today, so tomorrow I'll run the brake lines, and bleed them.

Where did you source the fork?  Model#?
I ordered directly from the Airwolf store on Aliexpress.  They offer the same frameset on eBay, at a lower price, but the projected shipping date is much sooner on Aliexpress.

160mm or 180mm rear disc? complete bike weight?

My frame has been delayed until 1/23, but I'll post photos when it arrives.
The frameset came today, and was well protected for shipping.


 
I'll have more time to fiddle with it tomorrow, but here it is so far.

I ordered this frameset 12/28(painted gloss white), and the frameset was delivered 1/16. Sadly, it was shipped to an address over 1000 miles from my home. I'll let you know how this turns out.
  Monday I received a new tracking number, and USPS shows that it is scheduled for delivery tomorrow 1/22.

No disc specific road wheels? A 27mm wide, 40mm deep wheelset would be nice.

Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / 61cm TT frames
« on: January 10, 2017, 10:08:51 AM »
Who makes big TT frames now? Most Chinese TT frames end at 57-59cm.

 I'm looking to replace a 2007 61cm Cervelo P3 that I sold a few years ago.
