Thanks

at 50 you are young, I would always take the small frame. The big one only if your torso is very long
I can with 180 cm 58 riders but have 56 and am very satisfied with 87 cm step

I want to get this frame but I am not certain which size would best fit me (49cm or 52cm).  I'm 5'4.5 with a 29" inseam, 50 years old.  I am currently riding a Trek Emonda 2015 52cm with a 80cm stem.  I am leaning to towards the 49cm frame since the offset in the seatpost would add to the effective top tube length and reach.  My concerns about the 49cm frame is the low stack.  I'm not sure if my 50 year old back can handle such a low stack.

"weight is 1300g, very light for 50mm depth"

180 DT - 50C - CX - Ray LIGHTCARBON

:) the few grams don't make it, I also have the same translation, but only 28 teeth at the back,
get along great with it

Yes. I think Red is about 300g less than Force. I did however save a little weight on the wheelset (weight is 1300g, very light for 50mm depth), carbon saddle (115g), tubolitos (2x40g), tires (240g each), and bartape (50g).

Ok fits, mine with ASX Red weighs 7.5 with pedals.
Costs €5000.
A great bike for the money, and on par with a SL7 Tarmac.
Equivalently I would have to spend over 10k.

Thanks. Total cost including all the tools and accessories I had to buy to assemble it all myself, was 4k€. I think it's a great price comparing it to bikes with the same components and comparable specs. A Tarmac SL7 Pro AXS costs 9.200€ and weights 7.6kg without pedals.

Class! What was your cost?

Sram DUB crank with the bearing 0 problems



#10
you then have to work with discs to get the distance

#11
I don't think everyone cooks their own soup ;D

On most bikes you can easily insert the bearings. But if you can easily move it back and forth, sideways, you can't.
#13
Yes, as it says there....now it's heavier, the light tubes with 24g are too sensitive...now it weighs 7690g
#14
VB took it out of the program because it was criticized for being too soft. But that's not the case for me. You go through the thread.
