Re: ICAN triaero A9
Figuring out the sizing was interesting. I just did my best to compare my old bike geometry chart to the ICAN geometry chart. I also found a rider on the Merida professional team who is exactly my height and I asked him on strava what frame size he uses. I want it for aggressive crit racing so the fit shouldn't be too different to his. As for handle bar size I just went for the narrowest and longest one they had in stock which was 400x120. They do a 38x120 but I would have been waiting weeks for it.

Also, even if I do get the wrong size frame, the bike market in the UK right now is so crazy I will be able to sell the bike on for a small profit and use the money to finance the correct size frame.

Re: ICAN triaero A9
Frame arrived today. Here is a quick picture. So far I am very impressed with the finishing quality. I have internally routed a few cables which was a lot easier than I thought. I am still waiting on parts to arrive. I will continue to update as I build.

Thanks for the input Alex. You have filled me with confidence! I got the steerer tube cut today and my local bike shop were impressed with the build quality. Here is a quick pic.

Re: ICAN triaero A9
Hello. I just got an ICAN A9 the other day and assembled it. The accuracy of the frame was very good. I won't go into impressions as I haven't run much distance yet, but the flats are as fast as the Bullet Train. The routing took a lot of time, as did the FSA ACR. FYI. Size: 52 (I am 177cm tall, and 82cm inseam) Group set: Ultegra 8020 (crankset with power meter 6800) Wheels: Carbonal Tubular Wheels 50mm deep Weight: 7.3kg (without pedals and bottle cages) October 04, 2020, 07:08:20 PM |
