Surely the rear triangle on this was designed to look 'cool' - like a fully but without the pivot or shock.

Isn't there a very high risk of it snapping? I wouldn't be keen to take any big hits or get any air on this thing.

Just need the two round things that go front and rear.

I prob should have ordered the plain black ones.  I placed a order on 1/20 and they don't expect to have it painted and shipped out until the end of Feb, maybe early March.  Wow...Ok...........aw well, I prob can't ride until late March anyway since I'm in WI

Size L frame (I didn't weigh it Mea Culpa), GX AXS groupset, X1 Dub crankset, carbon wheels fitted by me with internal 29mm Light-Ride rims (there I have my rear gravel wheel in the meantime  to change the ratchet on the other), Sid SL Select fork, 80mm/740mm carbon handlebar-stem combo, SRAM level ultimate brakes, Elita One seatpost and carbon saddle.
Weighed at 9.25kg, the assembly was very easy and the frame finishes are very clean.
I haven't been able to test it properly yet, I'll come back to give a more substantiated opinion but for the moment I find it very nervous, no doubt thanks to its oversized bottom bracket, the geometry is great, you feel well centered on  the bike, and the rear triangle seems to filter vibrations well, which is very pleasant.

give us your review, please

I got mine finished last night. Very happy with the outcome!

Rode it around the block a few times and seems light and playful with the 140mm fork.

Hopefully going to get in a ride this weekend.

Isnt that too much of a fork for that frame.....

It is a placeholder for now... waiting on a 120mm Fox 34 Stepcast to find its way to replace it.

I know the listing for the frames says its for 148mm rear axel but does anyone know if it also supports 135mm QR?

What is the deepest you go with the seat post?

What is the deepest you go with the seat post?

no.

[deucelee]

no.

what are you talking about? like what's the max insertion for a seat post.  I'm trying to figure out which seatpost to get so i can get it in as far as i can.

[raquetj]

I measure 9" of insertion on my medium frame.

2 solid rides and 17 miles in on it so far and I'm feeling happy with the build.
