Hi! Anyone using this with seperate bar and stem? What did you have to do to make it work?

I just got the Tavelo Arow frame with the 36 - 120mm handlebars. Really stiff. Drops are parallel to the ground which I like. Feels comfortable and robust. Not sure about the other handlebars.

Hi!

Does anyone know a supplier that can create carbon seatposts on order? Bought the Tavelo Arow frame but would really like to get a 25 mm offset seatpost for it. Not a dealbreaker but would improve my fit slightly.

Best,
Jonathan

For some reason Wheelsfar has removed the possibility to order with their own hub on the website. Anyone who knows anything about this?

So I looked at Wheelsfar. Do you know what Hubs No.6 are using? With some coupons you can get the price down to be very close to the Wheelsfar wheels but you get warrenty, crash replacement and pretty sick looking decals.

Yeah, they should ban cars hehe. Have not recieved the frame yet. Will post a picture when it is here and built up!

What did you end up paying for the total build?

Long story short, got hit by a car during a training ride which broke my old bike in 2. The wheels and group set are still ok.

Frame + handlebars: $1880
Incolor Skypivot crankset, 24mm titanium spindle + spider: $510
Cybrei 54/38 chainrings: $150
Dura ace Shimano BB: $30
Supacaz handlebar tape: $35

Already have the wheelset and Shimano Ultegra DI2 from my crashed bike.

Resale value is obviously important. However, if you are racing you want to be able to change things, upgrade and even crash without going broke. For sure, buying a second hand specialized SL7/8 or Giant Propel will yield better resale and you will know what you are getting. But, I want a 36 mm wide bar, 120 mm stem. 165 crank arms with 54 chainrings. There is no "complete" bika that comes with that. Second hand frames in Sweden where I live go for pretty high still. With the Tavelo Arow you get the frame and handlebars for a fraction of the cost. Honestly, I feel that the price point is very competetive if you take all those things in to account.

I saw now that they actually decreased the price to $1680 on the Tavelo website. Interesting...

I just ordered a Tavelo Arow and will have my LBS build it up. Hoping for the best.
