Hi Dave, SO sorry about this, . . .  Anyway, SO sorry if this causes any inconvenience for you. BTW, UPS charges way more than the fee $30 CDN you mentioned from us.

 You misunderstand me.

  I am actually VERY pleased about this. I was expecting UPS to charge me $100+ for brokerage/taxes as I have had to pay in the past for similar priced items. Also I mis-read the tracking, the frame is going to be here tomorrow !

 Perter, you are first rate and very patient. Thank you so much for helping me along with this purchase. I will DEF be ordering a set of wheels in a month or two.

Wow, that was fast, I didn't expect so fast delivery. Looking forward to your painted job on the frameset

Wheels arrived, absolutely delighted with them, close to 1300g for the set and they look amazing imo, love the sound of the freehub, sounds angry

 Love me an angry freehub. No need for a bike bell on the trails. Had one person say to me "I wouldn't have known you were there if it wasn't for the noise" I told them that's the point !

Btw, has anyone any instructions for putting together one of these internally routed headsets, first time doing one and unsure what goes where

[rasch]

Since you're using wireless shifting you just need to route the 2 cables. Nothing special honestly. Just make sure that you route either first the handlebar or leave the handlebar for last.

Quite heavy the frame and some overspray there in the BB..

The frame is with the seatpost, headset bearings, seat clamp and thru axles so I'm not overly disappointed with it, particularly with the custom paint, the over spray is a bigger concern though, just waiting on the correct t47 tool and I'll try to get the bb in.... slowly, wish I had a tap to clean the threads.

Pure laziness on my part as I had the seatpost inserted and didn't want to remove it
