Received my frame. Six weeks since ordering to UK
Size 52. 865G frame, 425G uncut fork in translucent blue. Dark until the light hits it. This is a mist of blue on a raw frame with glossy finish
Paint looks well done, no missing spots or anything. There are a couple of tiny dimples on the carbon here and there, as if no fillers have been applied. It seems only cosmetic and I’m not too worried. You’ll get what you pay for, some are lucky some are not. Apart from that, fork and all races look clean and smooth
BB with no overspray and threads all clean and good. Anyway,I did chased and slightly faced
Brake mounts as expected needed facing. All done, with before and after pics
Now waiting for a set of Zen wheels, carbon cranks from DFS and Ultegra groupset at some point. No hurry during winter
I can provisionally say the Hylix 15 to 0 offset fits. Only 0.20mm narrower that the Tan Tan post. I tested it with a set of wheels, no cranks and bouncing up and down full force without carbon paste
Fingers crossed it works since the inline post will help achieving the perfect fit

Thanks for the pictures and update!

I reached out to Rose last night and received a quick response, see below;

"Hi again,

thank you for your email

The chameleon white frame you ordered is in stock. We need to wait for the handlebar to be completed and we expect it to be shipped to you this week.

Once I ship I will update you with the tracking number and tracking link

best regards

Rose"

I ordered a 56 cm, after reading all the info on here (all threads), I might build this to be a lot of a Chinertown build, haven't decided yet...Hmmmm

Hello All,
I have been lurking and "researching" for a frame as I updated a bike with 105 mechanical that only had about 350-500 miles on it and the wheels.  The group set  and wheels have been in boxes for 2 years and decided to buy a used frame, but came across this site and decided to buy a clone for the hell of it!  I appreciate all the information from everyone to help each other out.  I decide on a Seraph and purchased via PayPal on Sat Nov. 8th.  For anyone interested, I will return the favors you have given me in the timeline, pictures of the frame, interior of the frame, etc...
