Nice, I'm deciding between this and the new tt-x68. That BB needs facing though, I thought ICAN have been around long enough to get this part right.

How did you get in contact with them ? They are not responding to my WhatsApp so I might try email.

Did they send tracking info to you? All I've gotten was pictures of my completed custom paint like two weeks ago and no tracking even after emailing melody again.

They are currently on a long holiday so it may take a while

Frame received. Much faster than expected. Ordered with custom painting Sept. 11th. Received Oct. 08.
Everything screams quality here from the communication to packing to paint and finishes. Based on this we will be ordering a Graro for my wife.
The bad news is that I am currently packing for a Mallorca trip and another is that I will wait until 11:11 to get a groupset

Very nice, congratulations.

Before leaving for Mallorca, can you post a photo of the "assembled" frame with fork, seatpost, and handlebars?

Thanks!

EDIT: Frame size?

Regarding the BB area, do you plan to remove the paint from the BB outer face or are you assembling as it is?

I plan to assemble as is and see what happens. The threads are clean and the pain in that area is perfectly applied. If there are no squeeks then I wont worry about it.

Size Large. I'm 188cm

One more question: I see that the "plate" for the seatpost clamp (which isn't the most attractive part) has 3 holes, but it seems to me that there are only two screws, and the center hole is left "empty."

Could you help me understand this?

Thanks a lot.

I can't wait to see the frame assembled. 

My custom painted frame should be coming soon. They are in the process of making a 350mm seatpost which is what I'm waiting for.

Slop alert. A friend is considering that frame. I pulled the above picture and used CoreX88's photo (Aston Martin green, X68 thread) and got Gemini to slop out.
In case that inspires someone.

In case anyone needs this. Torque specs.
