Nice!

What BTA system is that? Interested in the rails/botlecage-extender-adapter-thing (not sure what the name is, where you bolt the cage to and has the integrated computer mount). Also, what cages are that? Look like Gorilla XT's (imo the best cages for BTA solutions).

It’s a system Wattworx designed for it. If you email him, he should be able to help. Yes, gorilla cages.

Great work!
Good to know that you don't need the original stem. It's a known source of problems, and the cable routing isn't that easy either.

Why did you do the conversion?

Exactly for that reason, my stem cracked while torquing to spec. Chris at Velobuild did send me another one so huge thank you there, I just don’t trust the design. I figured this would be more solid, since it’s aluminum and carbon. Happy with it so far.

Following up after replacing the stock stem with the Vision Metron Snakebite system. It’s been great so far, pictures of how I routed the cables attached (you need spacers and I cut them). Thanks to Nikko for his help.

On frame box from Matt Golt (thank you). BTA system, Blip mounts ect are from https://www.wattworx3d.com/

Overall happy with it so far - they did send me a replacement stem as well, just don’t trust it honestly.

This has been a great place of information. It seems like the general consensus is it's a great bike minus the stem. I am also getting a replacement stem from Chris, but found a Vision Metron Snakebite cockpit on sale and will be installing that to remedy all the stem issues.

I'll try to update once I have that installed, hoping it's an easy (just not cheap) fix for the stem issue.
