Pic of my frame that came in recently.  Ordered some decals for it and got them put on.  I have not weighed any part of it yet.

Finally able to post some updates.  Still working on getting groupset and will be done or very close. Extremely happy with everything so far. Not a weight weenie but I think it is coming out pretty good. I will post pics of parts that I have so far.  Wheels are 50/60 with 24.3 internal and 31.8 external at lip and 34 mid wheel.  Inside of frame is extremely clean and slick.

Anyone used the new XMCS handlebars with the R01 or R06?  We can’t get the compression ring to match up with the FSA headset that works with the new handlebar.  Any help is appreciated?

Finally built and a first ride.  Love it.  First carbon frame and wheels. Also first one electric shifting.

Just a small update, 5000km done, added a geoid pm500 but other than that and a new chain and cassette all is the same as original spec. Fantastic bike, I'm 36 and am fitter now than I have been in the near 20 years I've cycled and I'm giving a lot of the credit to how much I love riding this bike, hasn't put a foot wrong once (other than one wheel top related issue). Might look into buying the Xmcs aero race frame for next year solely because of how good this is, price increase is noticeable and might lead me somewhere else but I can't fault the quality one bit.

I am using Magene P515 power meter and all works great.

How's the power meter going? Might get one for myself?
Accurate? Reliable? Cheap? Can't possibly have all three together

ive nothing to compare it against but its definitely giving me around what i expect for my weight and average speed, so far ive charged it once, calibrated it a few times (reverse spin cranks and with head unit), No issues

Yes:

I bought 4 VB, 3 Peter's, BXT is an Ali brand, and Tantan is shady AF.
My sequence is Peter, then VB, then the others.

Please buy from Peter, tell him it's entirely because of me, and then he sends me one billion dollars.
