where can I find all the frame paint options on xmiplay's website?  I saw a frame/rigid carbon fork in orange and black that was gorgeous, but can't find it on here anymore.  Anyone else know the pic I'm talking about?

You can email xmiplay with your custom paint design. They will tell you the costs.
I know which picture you mean. I will take a look tomorrow if I can find that picture.

Yessir. That would be the one. I found it but couldn't get the pic to load--said it was too big. I've sent peter and email but haven't heard back yet. Do they reduce shipping if you combine orders?

I don't get your email. Did you send it to me? Or my colleague ?

Here is my nearly completed IP-057 Lefty build! Please let me know of any observations since this is my first build.



Great build Tony! The white Lefty is a nice touch on the black frame.

Which version of the crank are you using? GXP or BB30...I can't really tell. If it is BB30...did you have any issues with the install?

Thanks!

I agree. Really nice bike. The lefty is just awesome!

I'm also interested in if people are running into BB30 issues or not. Perhaps, I'll start a thread.

I do have the BB30 and was worried about the install; however, I've had no issues with the install whatsoever. It was a breeze. I did purchase the bottom bracket park tool which came with the sockets to press the bearings into the frame. I bought the XX1 cranks from ebay for $240. It was delivered in two days. The seller was bikesmiths. I then purchased the 32 chainring from Arts cyclery. Like I said it was a breez and this is my first build. Thanks for the positive comments on my IP-057. Will post more pics when it is completed.

Hi everyone! Here is my 106:


As you can see it's on the producer's site! But I'm not among them.

Specs:
106 1st generation frame with full internal cable routing with 52 fork in size M, custom painted in black and red matt finish.
Full Sram X0 groupset in black and grey except Shimano XT cassete and chain. 40/28 Oval QRings. (way too hard for XC racing!)
Spec Roval EL wheelset.

Now it looks lil bit different:


So, from Russia with love! ;-)

Hi Russia, here the Netherlands. Welcome!

I really like the black/red combination. Very nice!
How long are you riding this bike ?

And what do you mean with "way too hard for XC racing!". Aren't the QRings nice to ride ?
