OK, so no incentive to buy this far from the deadline then, gotcha  :)

For integrated bar, they said that there is a version with no holes on top. TBH I am ready to take the risk, communications with Jack is so consistent and he replies to every questions I throw at him. I'll ask if they plan to add an option where the integrated bar is included so we will not order the handlebar separately thru paypal.

But unfortunately they use no standard for the integration (eg FSA ACR). So I will look for a handlebar somewhere else.

Why is this a problem? Sorry for the potentially stupid question, my bikes are externally routed and I'm not too well educated in internal routing.

As they use a round headtube no "real" problem but I like the way of the FSA ACR integration more than proprietary options.

What handlebar are you eyeing? I want to try those handlebars with risers like HBR017 from Lightcarbon. Seems like everyone in pro peloton is raising their stacks now lol

I think I will get in contact with Peter for the just released XMC handlebar with FSA system

If you are UK based I have the 38x100 from Peter for sale- unfortunately it won't fit my Vielo.

Everything about this frames looks interesting, but the head tube angle of 74 degrees in that size scares me off. I know it's a copy paste of SL8, but that doesn't mean it's good. Do you have any experience with similar frames?

Not at all, I currently ride with an old Look frame from the 2000s. But I'm 2 metres tall, so I don't think that will be a problem? I'm also thinking of buying the handlebars, but I have no idea what size to choose yet.

I would like it even better if it was only a little more stack on the smaller sizes. Like 10mm or so - that would be perfect. 😅😅
Serge, maybe you can ask that too? 🫣😅😅
