Strange, I got a few replies from Wing this week and last week...

I'm thinking maybe our mail got in their Junk/Spam folders.
Could you ask Wing to check?

Maybe we haven't had time to reply yet.
May I ask if they didn't receive the email the first time, or did they not receive the subsequent replies after receiving our reply?

I just put down a deposit for the frame version that takes an externally routed handlebar (US$495.00 with frame, fork, seat post, clamp). Sharing the diagram Wing sent me that shows the routing. Getting a headset for regular round spacers. Oh, and the flatmount bolts in the rear should be for 20mm chainstay width (so, 33mm).

By the way, interesting to see how close the geo is to the Canyon Grizl and Devinci Hatchet. Excited for some more modern geo & axle standards for my current gravel bike (built around an octane one kode frame, which has been fun but a bit limited).

(It's US$650.00 with the CGB02 integrated handlebar.)

more moder ...axle standards ...

I missed that boat... new axle standards for gravel ?

adriaanm

Sorry for being vague. I guess it depends on your definition of "modern" :-D. My current cheapo steel frame is a bit of an abomination with horizontal dropouts with IS brake mounts with longer slots. It's a nightmare to get the rear wheel to stay in place, even ;-)

I guess I should have listened when they said it was really for a town bike (that's what I'll convert it to))

So the 707 with normal cable routing ports on the sides of the headtube vs the integrated thru the headset routing?  Plus bento mounting on the TT, didn't notice that on the carbonda site either.

I think the 707 is back in the pic for me then, I really didn't want to deal with integrated cabling.  Just with the seatpost was 30.9 or 31.6 for better dropper options and the HTA was just a bit slacker, but can't have everything.

Ah ok, I thought for a moment the gravel were turning boost  ;D

Has anyone ordered, recieved and/or built this frame?  :D

adriaanm

I did. I was told recently it should be getting painted right around now. Fingers crossed :-)

Ordered a week ago, but not yet shipped.

Will be a while to get completed as I wait on SRAM Rival AXS components as well.
