I have received my frameset a couple of weeks ago. I had no issues with the headset or the BB.
Shipping took a little bit longer than expected to receive the frame. Communication was ok. I couldn't make up my mind on the color and I really liked the one l45er got so I went for something similar.
I've rode around 1000km without any issues. It's a very fun bike to ride. It's the perfect all road bike. I'm even thinking of ordering another one in a cool chameleon color.

I noticed that there's a mark / crack near the axle. Everything feels solid and I think it's just the edge of a carbon sheet. Should I be worried? What do you guys think ?

Hi everyone. Long time lurker here. I've been wanting to build up an open mold frame for over a decade but I have talked myself out of it every time. Well this is finally the time. I plan on pulling the trigger on the frame once I pick a color-hopefully tonight. I really like the pearl pics I've seen on here but some of the metallic colors are awesome as well. I'm also piecing together a Sram Force AXS groupset-in part because I don't want to screw around with routing the shifter cables for either mech or Di2. Before I start actually purchasing parts I've got a few questions:


For those running Sram, do you use the "wide" crankset and FD? I don't think it's necessary but I'm tempted.

Has anyone purchased the airwolf carbon wheels? I'm looking at the 30mm version-not sure on depth yet. Any depth recs or other brands I should check out around the same price point?

From my understanding, I need to also purchase the Specialized SL7 compression cap and matching headset bearings. Is there anything else I must have to make the frame work? Is there anything else you recommend?

How long did shipping take for you? The website says 7-10 days but I refuse to put my hope in that.

I'm pretty psyched to get this thing built up and will hopefully post some pics of my progress.

Thanks!

I bought a thread together Bottom Bracket from ZTTO (Thread Lock, DUB 29mm, BBright PF79-77) and I needed to use a Dub wide crank
