Size L build update – tyre clearance with 45C on a 28 mm internal rim

Frame arrived last week (Sailfish Pearl, size L – deposit 11 Aug, ordered 25 Sept, delivered ~3 weeks after shipping).

Measured weights (own scale):
– Frame L: 1'008 g (incl. bolts and downtube protection)
– Fork: 397 g
– Seatpost 380 × −5: 159 g
– KREUZA Apex GR 410 × 90: 326 g

Tyre clearance:
– Rim: Elitewheels Drive G42, 28 mm internal
– Tyre: Continental Terra Competition Race 45C, tubeless → 45.9 mm measured
– Seat stay: 9.5 mm · Seat tube: 11.1 mm · Chainstay: 9.9 mm · Fork: 8.1 mm

So the 45C has plenty of room. Based on the tread-cap reports above, I won't try a 50 at the rear.

Videos if anyone wants to see the details:

Full build with SRAM RED XPLR AXS 1×13 coming next.
