Looks fantastic!  8) Congrats on the build.

Do you think you could take some up-close pictures of the clearance with the new tires?

Also, how does it ride?  ;D

And what about that chainstay protector. Where did you get it from?

Thanks. I finally got out on a ride working full time and two kids makes it difficult to get out. It rides pretty good I don't have a ton to compare it to. On gravel it's def a bit bumpier than my rondo ruut I had previous with 650b x 2.2 tires. But on road it feels really good compared to the rondo. I only did a 12 mile ride and my seatpost came loose by the end so I need to put some more carbon paste I guess. But over happy with it. Also it's a chain stay for forbidden druid MTB

Does anybody know if I can use their cockpit with external routing instead of internal?

Do I need different headset or anything from aftermarket?
Thanks

Nice wheather yesterday here in greater Stuttgart area, so i took the chance to... no, not ride:-( but to take some pics of the (95%) final state of my 1056. I changed the stem several times; now with a Rose Race Attack I'm pretty satisfied as it matches well the frame tube shapes (flat at the top) and the matte color. Setup is "full mechanical" incl. brakes (TRP Spyre SLC). With 160mm front and 140mm rear the performance is fine for a road bike; a bit more would alway be nice (heard of magical "ceramic" pads from the far east ;-)). I tried to run the cables as smooth as possible. With the nice polished parts at the brake calipers and the crank brothers pedals I tried some aluminium bottle cages; from my point of view it matches quite well. Anyway with bottles in them you won't really recognize them anymore... Some plotted decals to be done including giving the baby a name. I think of "1a n3ra" (read: la nera") and make some fun out of the "13" raplcing "lE". Main thing is: color or black reflective? And if color: which? A well known member of this forum is supporting me strongly, but I'm still undecided...

You can certainly choose not to feed cables through the handlebars - just tape them to the bars. Or I suppose you could feed them into the holes marked 16.2*12 and out the holes marked 16*8.5.

Then feed the cables into the holes in either side or top of the frame. No changes to headset or anything aftermarket required.

I've built two of these - one with a flat handlebar & necessarily external cable routing - and one with Carbonda's handlebar and internal cable routing. No regrets with either.

Hi guys,
I bought this frame and recieved it last week. Everything is nice as expected but I think they send me the wrong seatpost wedge or they forgot to mill the frame to size in order for the wedge to fit. How wide is the distance for the wedge on your frames? I send a message to wing but no reply yet.

That looks like the wrong clamp. :(

My seatpost clamps were just under 16mm.

They realized their mistakes and will send me the correct one as soon as possible :D Thanks for checking @cme.
Hope to update my build once completed here in the forum. 8)

Did anybody use their aero handlebar CHB1036 and guide through 4 lines? Is it easy/doable?

Nice looking bike. Which stem did you use?
I'm planning to order one frame in the next (few) week(s). I'm looking for a stem with internal cable routing, 80mm long, +6 or 0 degree stem. Any tips?

I didn't end up building this way, but it's possible to route 2 cables through each set of holes on the handlebar and 4 cables through the headset spacers.

Not the OP, but the handlebar was designed to be compatible with the ACR system by FSA and Vision. That particular stem appears to be a SMR version from Vision - https://shop.visiontechusa.com/en/stems/road-gravel/vision-stem-ns-smr.
