Xmcarbonspeed CS-R01 build

[Icyseanfitz]

Hi Guys, starting this thread to follow my new bike build which will be built around xmcarbonspeed's cs-r01 frame, placed my order today with a custom paint scheme (similar to a supersix lab71 scheme). Also ordered a set of their D50CU-28 wheels built up with in house hubs and carbon spokes to go with the frame. I'll attach some images Peter sent me of the frame and geometry.

Would like to put a wireless groupset on it and I'm really leaning towards the wheeltop eds tx as force d2 is so bloody expensive.

Hoping to get this build pretty light so any recommendations for a good value crankset/chainrings would be appreciated, also a good 12 speed lightweight hg cassette recommendation.

Dealing with Peter has been fantastic, had lots of small requests regarding painting and extras and he has replied multiple times every day, very forthcoming with information and very accommodating to any requests. Up to this point customer service has been the best I've dealt with.

 I am ordering this frame as well. I will be painting mine - just need to come up with an idea. I just did a g056, have my old Pinarello in prep and just stripped a 68' Grandis Superleggera. My brain is hurting a bit LOL.  Looking forward to your build.

This is the scheme that Peter said they would try their best to emulate without codes.

Interested to see your build too

He sent a picture measuring the rear chainstay and it should easily fit my 35mm Gravelkings. It will be set up with wireless SRAM and used on and off road.

Hi

 where did u find this model. i couldnt ifnd it on their homepage

[Icyseanfitz]

Peter put it on their wheel promotion thread, he emailed me more details when I asked them.

For those interested, this frame as well as another new one is listed on Geometry Geeks.

 After some thinking I think this is what mine will look like. A bit of an homage bike if you will.
 Please don't roast my photoshop skills LOL

Look Mondrian, but allergic to blue? interesting
If you ever consider selling it, you might want to add the c'est la vie as a vinyl decal yourself. That way, you can change your mind every month and change the logo, and if you sell it, you remove it so it's more neutral for the buyer.
My tractor logo is vinyl, 9000km, hasnt moved. Flawless. And would have been impossible to position it just right if i had asked them to paint it.
Tcheu ste panthere !

 I have a hobby vinyl cutter and do this as well. I also use it to make stencils for airbrushing and such. On my g056 I tried each of these but was finally happy with the final one although I was partial to Willie Nelson as a troll logo but people didn't get it LOL

 ALSO, are you running 180mm rotors an a fork built for 140/160 ? If so what adapter is that ? - Nevermind, I see that those are post mount calipers. I am still looking for a nice looking flat mount adapter. I may have to make one myself.

i asked peter to stick some decals similar to the golden ones on that supersix so we'll see how it turns out, decals went to production i think yesterday.
