Can’t wait to see the full build! What are you going to spec the frame with?

This frame looks really nice.
I am likely going to pull the trigger on a XXL 56CM Matt Black version.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to adjust saddle tilt on this type of seat post?

[joeynailz]

Yes, you can adjust tilt.

It is a single screw fastener/adjustment design. (See screw in far right side of scale shot) Which is not my favorite. But so far I have no complaints. Added a little carbon paste and have only had the seat post tilt once on an initial test ride, increased the torque a little and no issues since.

Also added some new bottles/cages over the holidays. They fit quite nicely on my XS frame.

[Camel]

Thank you!

I placed my order today!

Your aero bottles look great funnily enough I added the exact bottles to my
cart, great to see how they look on the frame!

Do you happen to know the exact type of T47 Bottom Bracket that’s compatible with this x65 frame?

[tgarne]

Can’t wait to see the full build! What are you going to spec the frame with?

I am really looking forward to it as well.

I will build it up like this:
HB: Lightcarbon HBR17 38/120
Wheels: Yoeleo NXT SL2 60mm
Saddle: Specialized power S-works mirror
Hoods&Calipers: Sram Red E1
RD: Sram force E1
Crankset: TBD (I have a Magene PES P515 lying around, prob gonna start with that)
Chainring: 1x Passquest 50t
Casette: Sram AXS 36t

How’s the bike build coming along?
Strongly considering buying one, but would love to see one built in larger sizes. Cheers!

Still waiting for delivery. Should have left China on the 14th. Hopefully I will receive it soon

I ordered mine via the Serap Ali Store on Jan 6 for XXL x65. Still waiting for it to be dispatched. Last update I got was it was in paint stage and the Rep said there are delays because there have been so many orders

[AJR75]

So my frame has arrived and the build will start in coming weeks. X65 Frame in XXL (560) - ordered early December - arrived last week (4th Feb 26) So about 8 weeks in all. No customs or duty when delivered to Ireland.

I got some Helix Elite Wheels to go with it, a Pass Quest Chainring and Magene Power Meter. Plan is a X1 setup as its a build specifically for a 24hr race I'm doing in summer and its laps around a car race track, so no climbing. Also probably just gonna use cable brakes connected to ZTTO or ONRI hydrolic callipers paired with LTWOO GR9 1x 11 (because I already have it) - simple and basic but thats all I need for this project. A cable based system might be easier to repair on the day if I have an issues.
The facing on the BB and the brake mounts seems a lot better than the last frame I got (GR201) but I haven't actually fully bolted everything on yet and gone riding so time will tell a better story.
I'm not a big fan of the saddle mount system, I'm sure I'll get used to it, but straight away there is no way the RYET saddle I bought for this build will fit. No matter what I tried their is no enough room between the saddle rail and the saddle to fit the upper part of the clamp system.
So thats the inital thoughts. Paint job is very good almost all over, but woudln't pass QC at a high end brand. A few aeras could be better but not enough for me personally to be bothered - you kinda get what you pay for I guess. And no one is realisticly gonna notice in day to day use.
I'm gonna do the livery on the downtube myself as I didn't want what I'm putting there to be there permanently after I'm fnished the race in the summer.

Some silver circualr shims arrived with it that fit the steering tube perfectly - but I'm not sure where they are supposed to go. SO if anyone can shed any light that would be great.
I'll post a pic of all bits and pieces that came with later.
