My build is now finished, so here are the final details.

I've made a few changes since my original post and I'm really happy with how it's turned out. It's currently sitting at around 6.6kg.

Final spec:

* LTK266-D-SL – Large
* Shimano Ultegra R8100 Di2
* 165mm carbon crank
* ENST 50mm carbon wheels
* T4 Ultra integrated carbon riser bar
* Lightweight RYET carbon saddle
* 2 × 9g carbon bottle cages
* Titanium thru axles
* Aero computer mount
* Superstar Components brake pads
* Chaser 160mm rotors

Now the build is finished, I'm actually going to sell it so I can start another one. I really enjoy building these bikes, probably more than I should!  If anyone is interested in a fully built bike then drop me a message.

Nice bike.
But a bit too many spacers maybe? I think 40mm is generally considered maximum for carbon steerer tubes?

hi thanks. I do have changes still need to be made and will shorten once I have my fit.

Hi all,

Got out on my new build yesterday and did a 50 mile rise and bike felt pretty good. Little stiffer than I'm used to but it's early days and have a few setup changes to make yet.

If anyone is looking for an alternative seatpost wedge cover, I have used one from a 2024 Giant defy and think it fits pretty well and has minimal overhang at the back.  You can pick them up for a couple of pound on aliexpress etc and just need to trim the piece the would normally sit in the bolt.

Could someone who hasn't assembled the frame yet, or who knows, tell me the size and length of the seatpost wedge bolt? I think mine might be too long, and it's causing the wedge to lift slightly.

Hi I'm using a 30mm bolt on mine as the one that came with it was also too long.

Hi all, been lurking a while now and thought I should share my build. Just had my frame delivered in a large and black gloss. Took only a week after it was dispatched, so very quick. Quality is amazing and finish is superb. This is the third direct from China frame I have built and it's easily the best so far.

I am waiting on a few bits and bobs to turn up to get it built properly but here are a couple of pics from my build so far and if you have any questions would love to help.
