He purchased it on EBAY from "Sobato bike".  Same place I got my 29r.

Thanks!  Great looking bike BTW...  I'm working on #2 which is the same frame in the 27.5" version for my brother.  Can't wait to log some miles.

Are you talking about the Workswell WCB-M-062 as an 27.5"?
If yes: Where can I find it?

Where did you source the chain stay protector?  Looks like it was molded for the frame...

A lot of latex in the RaceSport tires, difficult to seal.

Finally got the new Fox 32 step cast fork after a 2 month wait!  Routing the rear brake was a non issue feeding from the caliper end.  Took all of 5 minutes using the "pull" method with a thin wire and barb end.  Did not run full length derailleur housing.  Not sure why anyone would??  Bar stem combo will be changed at some point as both were from a previous build.  Now waiting on the bleed kit for the SRAM guide brakes in order to terminate and bleed.  Uses a different threaded coupler than the old Avid brakes... 

Enter.

Yeah, the orange theme is abundant in my stable.  Paint is well done for an extra $50.  No clear though so I'm sure it will scratch easily. 

Glad I went with the 168 Q.  Clearance should be just about perfect.

Aahh, I was perplexed at the allen plugged hole and it's use on the clamp.  Thanks for enlightening me on the purpose.  I agree with your thoughts on having more adjustability.  I'll play with all the options once the frame arrives and I can start hanging parts.

Finally received a tracking number from Sobato bikes!  Built up the Stans ZTR Crest rims w/BHS hubs. SRAM XX1 group arrived as well. Thankfully I was able to get the 168 Q factor crank.  Went with SRAM Guide RSC brakes.  The new Fox step cast 32 fork won't be available til mid June.

Great looking ride!

Looks like a 90-100mm -17 stem?  Looking for advise on a stem for mine.  Bar/stems have changed since my last XC bike which fit nicely with a 120mm o degree stem / 30mm riser bar.  Now it seems like -6 / -17 and much shorter 80-100mm have come into favor.  I assume this is partially driven by the 29r frame geo?  I ordered the 18.5" and I'm 6' 1".
