Unfortunately, the Q Factor of a road crankset is too narrow. The chainrings will rub against the frame. You could theoretically add axle spacers, but only a limited number, which likely won't help. Before the frame arrived, I asked Spcycle about mounting a Shimano 105 crankset, and they replied that the frame was designed for GRX cranksets with a larger Q Factor.
Thanks for your feedback. The crankset I was planning on using was an old ultergra 6600 triple. I'm guessing the small chainring would clear without issue (and larger q factor). With this in mind, do you happen to know if this would be compatible? Thanks in advance.

Just did a ~4km test ride to bed in brakes etc. Rides great from first impression. Still have a bit of a chimney above the stem, due to playing around with the stack. Will probably leave the spacers how they are right now (20mm including headset topcap) and shorten the steerer. Running 2.4" Pirelli Scorpion XC RH atm. but I think I'll go down to 2.25" thunder burts for my normal riding.
Can you tell me what type of bars those are? I'm looking for something with short drop like this so my neck doesn't get mad at me.

What was the issue with the 105 crank? Curious cuz I was planning on using an old Shimano 6600 groupset.

Can someone with frame at hand confirm that frame sizes s,m,l correspond to 46,49,52 respectively (center of BB to top of seat tube). This frame at light-cycling.com shows a large as 58cm which seems way long. Thanks in advance.
