Interesting.. I feel a little bit of play in the steering.. but is very small, so I dont care about it.
Someone has asked to Chris?

Mine had quite a bit of play in the steerer.

The issue was that the headset topcap was fouling on the headtube and not actually compressing the ring on the bearing - so the steerer was essentially loose against the top bearing. Managed to fix this with a few microshims between the topcap and the compression ring (though I needed to cut out a slot to let the integrated cabling through) and hasn't been an issue since.

I think somebody had a similar issue and describes the same fix in earlier pages so i wouldn't be surprised if this was a pretty common issue.

The 168 will not clear 35c comfortably. I'll probably rotate but it will be very limited in clearance. The fork is the main limiting factor

33-34c is max.

Here shown with 32c WAM all-road tires




Consider the CFR-1056 as it weighs about the same, has external cable routing, and will importantly clear a 35c tire comfortably.

What rims are you running there with the 32c?

Can anybody who has built up this frame with di2 shoot up some pics of how they've installed the FD cable through the cable stop?

I'm in the process of building mine up but looks like i'll either have to forgo the fd cable stop altogether (not ideal) or drill out a bigger opening to fit through the di2 cables (not ideal but probably the better option)
