Just another build thread XM CSR01

[Daviddavieboy]

  Please don’t flame me for starting another thread for this frame. I have a terrible memory and want to keep what I am doing in one thread. This arrived today WAY ahead of when I thought it would land.

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

 I only ordered it on NOV 30 and it was shipped out right away. It certainly helped that I wanted it bare primer.
 
What came was frame, fork, seatpost/clamp thru axles, 2 derailleur hangars, headset and some cage bolts.

 I must have made Peter swear at times with all my questions and delays in answering him back but he was always professional with me.

 It looks almost perfect to me with the only things noticeable is a little piece of plastic? In the bb area bound to the carbon and a small ‘chip’ in the headset bearing area. The bearings slide in easier than I prefer and feel a little loose so I will try again when I shoot a coat of epoxy primer in the area.

Looking good, best of luck with the build

   I was hoping my 35 Gravelkings would fit but alas they do not. The is a little clearance but not as much as I would like. FWIW the tires on my 28mm external width rims are measuring 36.88 mm so an all season tire might fit ok. The pictures are of the fork, the rear wheel won’t go in at all. If the derailleur hangar was angled back a little to clear the cassette the wheel would just fit with the 35 tire mounted.

That's right alright, what's the max clearance you think?
