ICAN FL1

That's strange about the speed wobbles. I don't have big mountains in my area, but on short descents above 45kph I have no issues with the bike shaking. I have not been faster than 60km on this frame.

Regarding speed wobbles....

I've ridden my FL1 roughly 5600km this year and routinely do Cat1 and HC climbs near me. What goes up, must come down...so I've done a lot of descending at 70+ kph.

I've experienced speed wobbles exactly once which I attribute to a confluence of events unrelated to the frame itself: I was fairly cold descending, there was a particularly strong crosswind in exposed sections of the descent, and my wheels were somewhat deep with bladed carbon spokes.

Thank you for your feedback. Good to hear that this is not a common problem with the frame. So i will start troubleshooting, my frame is not damaged. Some have also installed the Avian Canary, are there any problems with speed wobbling? The handlebars seem to be very flexible to me.

What derailleur hanger does this frame use? UDH?
Also is this an EPS mold?

[Pistonbroke]

It's not udh, standard replaceable hanger.
Don't know how it's moulded but the internal looks very good.

Regarding speed wobble....
I've had over  70kph fairly regularly now and no wobble to report. Over 80kph a few times. Feels rock solid on descents. Frame size 56.
For the record that's with two sets of wheels, first set were 50mm elite and the current set are 35mm XMCS.
Both sets of wheels used the same conti gp5k 30mm.
Stem is 130mm and bars are 300mm wide.

Ok for those of you who have owned this frame for a few months now..... would you still purchase it or something else?
Just got a quote and am thinking about what color (you know the important stuff)
So now that it is no longer super new do you still recommend it?

[Pistonbroke]

Yes, it builds into a great bike.
Every now and again I do wonder how much faster a full aero frame would be, but that's about it.

[Tunapuff]

There's always an itch to buy something new, but I still love mine. Picked up some KOMs on short sprint segments, so plenty fast for me

Frames arrived and most of the parts required for the build.

Could someone confirm the bolt lengths required for shimano disc calipers with 140mm rotors or knows the frame thickness  https://si.shimano.com/en/dm/RADBR10/install_brake_caliper#xd_991fd65585931a99-18952947-17110754f5e--67e0

The frame thickness is 20mm. Well, mine is.

Bike was easy to put together and the quality seems great including the paintwork

Just needing bar tape now, once happy with the fit

[Pistonbroke]

Fantastic colour!

Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the ride.

[crazyravr]

@cancan please level your saddle

[cancan]

Completed and with bar tape.

Definitely enjoying the bike and the frame is definitely very impressive even compared to the actual Aethos which this is definitely taking some inspiration and improving upon.

The Aethos 2 is now an ICAN FL1 clone!
