I received this frame about a month ago. Alisa is great at answering detailed questions. She seems very professional and was always helpful. I placed my order on the 17th of May and received it around the 13th or 14th of June.

I ordered size S, and as far as I can tell, the frame is almost perfect. There's a small gap that looks like a void or chip, but it’s nothing to worry about. It’s so small that I didn’t even notice it at first glance. Everything else looks great. The inside of the frame is ultra smooth. I need to clean the T47 threads because they look dirty — it seems like some stuff got in there. But again, that’s nothing unusual; you kind of expect to do some minor maintenance with OEM frames. For around $700–750, it’s hard to find a better frame, and if the T1000 + T1100 carbon info is true, then that’s an amazing deal.

As for the weight — my frame in size S, including both hangers, weighs around 730–740g. I’m happy with that.

I'll try to post some photos of the frame later. Here's how it looks, very minimalistic and I like Scott Addict RC 2025 paintjob so got inspired by that as a base. I will be adding some small details myself.

I read that you ordered size S and would like to know your height and inseam. Saddle height would also be nice to know 😄
Thanks and see you soon.

You're making me regret my decision to go with the SC-R55D, that is a stunning build! Props to you
By the way, is that Glossy or Matte finish?

I'm considering a similar setup. What model is the Avian handlebar? Do I need to order an adapter from the manufacturer (Avian)? Do you know if it's possible to order the seatpost with setback?

Halfshark

That looks incredible!

Would love to know what parts you bought and have gone with.

I have just had my Serenade 'Wavy' wheelset come in and planning to build up with standard Ultegra Di2 and Lightcarbon HBR17 bars.

The cranks and chainset look fab! Let us know how it rides

Question using the P505.  I thought it was only compatible with Magene crankset?  How did that work for you?

The p505 is also sold as PM alone. There is a 3 bolt version.
The PM that is sold with the cranks will only fit those cranks.

It's the Avian Falcon. I got it off AliX, but it was 305gr instead of the 280gr they list...
So maybe they sell rejects or something...
You do not need an adapter, the spacers are included and fit the frame.
Ofcourse it also included a nice top cap, but I will install that after I have dialed in my fit

Nice build!

If you arent a heavy rider, one really simple way to shed a few grams is going Ti for the saddle clamp bolt. Its just an M6x55.

Mind if I add this one to the first post?

No, go ahead.
Thanks for the tip
