Is this not the same handlebar? You can get it for about 50usd with coupons I guess. And you don't have the ugly graphics
I just found this on AliExpress:
US $149.35 | elitaone SL8 Road Carbon Handlebar Bent Bar Internal Cable Routing Bicycle Handlebar 28.6mm Diameter with Spacer
https://a.aliexpress.com/_Ex6BD6i

yeah, it looks like its the same

still a little more expensive than it was
With delivery and a discount coupon, it came to 714 dollars, which is about 615 euros (the exchange rate is very volatile, so approximately)

Hi, I should start assembling the frame tomorrow.
I've read the whole thread, but I haven't quite figured out how to stack the bearings between the fork and the frame. Does anyone have any photos of the correct order? (Even the up/down orientation.)


Are the following tightening torques okay?

Headset preload bolt (top cap) 2–3 Nm
Expander plug (compression plug) 7–8 Nm
Stem steerer clamp bolts (side bolts) 5–5.5 Nm
Stem faceplate bolts (handlebar clamp) ~4 Nm
Seatpost clamp ~6 Nm
Brake levers & shifters (on carbon handlebar) 5–6 Nm
Lock-on grip collar bolts 1–2 Nm
Rear brake caliper (on carbon frame) 6 Nm

Thanks!

I ordered mine back in early April and it came to $759 after shipping. The price is much higher now but now includes free shipping to California. Add in the discount code, and it's basically the same price as before for me

Yeah, nothing screams "new high-end frame" like an old 105 groupset with cable disc brakes  ;D

Looks like an open mold frame... Anyone knows which one?

Surprised they didn't just iterate on the Model S with newer layup, titanium screws, and a more aero fork with better tire clearance

I wish they would make an endurance frame

Hi, I received the frame today. During inspection, I noticed this single flaw. Do you think it could be a serious structural issue, or is it just cracked paint around the thru-axle attachment?

Thanks!

Is it really cracked paint or just badly sanded and painted over the ridge?

No one will tel you that without sanding the paint.

How do I know?

Unfortunately without sanding the paint down to carbon, it will be hard to know
