Re: Carbonda FM909 There are some good news from my order.
Seemingly my frame has already come to life.
I got the information from Katie that it will be painted next week. 
 :) Yes i am excited. Although I don't think it will be here before January.

We want to know everything! Color scheme, decals, picture of frame before shipment  ;D

So far no picture. Colour will be carbon raw with a blue top coat. So the carbon structure will shine throught the blue top coat.
I will cut decals on my own,  which is why I am not sure about the colour yet. Gold, copper, bronze or teal are options. Or white,
holo,  grey.... . I would like a brushed metallic surface for the decals.
Also I was a bit crazy and will take the integrated cockpit.  If that's not working out there are headset options to run a conventional stem and handlebar. I just couldn't say no to that.

Re: Carbonda FM909 That's nice colour shading.
My frame is also painted.  8)
Yes its rather a dark frame on the overview photo. Translucent color on black can't be very bright   ;).
The carbon blue raw effect is even more beautiful as I expected. In the top tube there is even a small weave part visible  ;D, although I didn't expect that.
 
This is more the kind of effect the rider itself can see and from distance it is not so pronounced. Since I am the rider, that's exactly what I wanted.

My frame comes in size S. Just if somebody asks.

Besides you are not made of money the leadtime for Trickstuff is also quite exclusiv: 18 months!  :o
What kind of handlebar will you use?

I'm keeping my eye on a new bar from Workswell. Its not in production yet but visually the design looks nice.

I was under the impression defualt routing was external. I'm not expecting mine to turn up with a headset suitable for internal routing.

Maybe. You should make that clear.
I asked for the internal routing. And update: I will get the correct dust cap, the warehouse made a mistake.
So it's just waiting then.
Meanwhile I just fixed the fork a bit to try the feeling.
I know it looks funny and a bit weird with all the hoses escaping the handlebar vertically.. but here the first impression of the complete bike in frame size S.

And then a daylight photo of the colour. Artificial light makes it appear almost black.
Those theoretical graphs look interesting.. but tell me, can you feel this differences during the ride?
