New Avenger R8-RS

[Bonus79]

I recently bought a Cycplus T7, and it makes adjusting the settings incredibly easy.
I've realized that I have a pretty low tolerance when it comes to reach; even a tiny +-10mm variance makes a noticeable difference to me.
On the other hand, I can comfortably tolerate a stack anywhere between 600〜650mm, with 620〜630mm being my absolute sweet spot.
That said, comfort is highly dependent on body proportions, fitness levels, and riding distance, so these numbers probably don't mean much to anyone else.

1. The length of the section highlighted by the red line is 190mm.

2. The distance from the center of the BB along the seat tube to the top of the saddle is 760mm. The vertical height from the ground to the top of the saddle is 1050mm.

Also, the saddle-to-handlebar drop looks a bit extreme in the photo, but that's likely just due to camera lens distortion.
It doesn't look nearly that drastic in reality.

First of all, thanks for the reply.

However, there is something that doesn't quite add up... the 190mm measurement requested in point 1 seems consistent with the 760mm bottom bracket-to-saddle distance and the 525mm seat tube.
What doesn't make sense, though, is the 1050mm measurement from the floor... did you perhaps mean 1005mm?
If the handlebar height from the floor is 885mm, the saddle-to-handlebar drop would be 165mm, whereas you stated the saddle-to-shifter drop is 100mm... and judging by the photo you posted, it is impossible for the shifters to be 65mm higher than the handlebars.

I have saddle height around 818 mm (81.8 cm) on both my bikes (Shuttle and EXP), and I have around 105,0 cm from the ground. Therefore, for sure it should be around 1005 mm so 100,5 cm, or similar? SO what is your shifter height on the photo, from the ground ? Then we have all dimensions  I put a photo with the geometry of SL 58 size and RS. Both with 120 mm handlebar. You can see the differences in mm on shifters, for both bikes so 5 mm higher and 5 mm longer (Shuttle SL)

Oops, mistyped. It's supposed to be 1005mm, 100.5cm.

Frame received a few weeks ago. Built with Dura Ace and Campagnolo Bora Ultra 60 wheelset for a total weight of 7,12 kg. The bike is insanely fast (coming from a 2009 Cube and a 2014 sub-6 kg Focus Izalco Max 0.0). Stack is indeed very low, I almost wanted to ask for more spacers but ended up with just the standard 6x5mm spacers. It's an aero bike after all and that would have been not really nice aesthetically. I actually feel very good on the bike now, quite comfortable. I had some issues with some screws and engaging the thread in the nuts (used a tap to clean the threads). Another issue is that I have to apply a lot of torque on the headset to remove any play (there is enough space between expander and top plate and bearings are not compressed at all). I'm guessing it's because there is a lot of friction between the fork and stem. Headset fine tuning was not easy, but maybe I'm just bad. Really happy with the frame regardless.

The frame came with both a steel bolt kit and a titanium bolt kit.
I suspect the titanium bolts are from S-Parts, a brand commonly used by bike shops in China.
While they aren't cheap, they do seem to suffer from occasional QC/tolerance issues.

The steel bolts thread in perfectly, but some holes felt a bit tight with the included titanium ones.
In particular, the M6 × 15mm bolt for the seatpost wedge clamp wouldn't thread in at all when using the provided titanium bolt.
Switching back to the included steel bolt—or using a titanium one I bought separately—worked flawlessly.

When you have time, could you post a side view of the bike?

Thanks

Here you are.

[Bonus79]

Here you are.

The look is certainly better without spacers, but it doesn't look bad this way either.

If I may offer a suggestion: I would remove one 5mm spacer so that the bottom of the stem aligns with the top tube. 

[Mariuszuzd]

could you be so kind and take a photo of computer mount, ans how it's attached to the handlebar? I have seen some photos but without any hole. I wonder how the mount looks like.

The computer mount is attached to the handlebar with two bolts, as usual.

[Mariuszuzd]

I have just ordered one, that race edition version. I already have black one, I like colors  I choose 120/120 handlebar, I'm 187 cm with 91.5 cm inseam. Frameset is ready, but I need to wait for the handlebar, it's not available at the moment.

[Leon1234]

Does the handlebar consist out of two pieces so V-Stem and then the bar itself or does it just look like it? And if so can the stem be ordered seperately to save some money when trying out a different bike fit?

[Mariuszuzd]

In my opinion no, that is just one element with a place where you can put the rest bar.

At page 2 in this thread there is pictures of the frame in the box. There  you can see that the handlebar and y-part is two different pieces that mount together. I don't know if the stem can be ordered separately though.

[cateto]

I don't know if the stem can be ordered separately though.

yes you can buy the stem alone, it's 80$
