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.

Hope you came out of that crash better than your frame!!

It's around the same price I gave for my Merida Reacto 4000 (if I take out the price of the groupset) from brand new.

Honest, I think the Tavelo Arow is a nicer bike and I still need to change my handlebars, but then my value risc regarding crash etc is not bigger than from a Tavelo bike. And I still have better resale options.

Do have a picture of your build? Would love to see it.

I red all this topic. I think most of you are talking about Tavelo Arow without having ever seen or touched with own hands the product.
I can say you all that I bought a Tavelo Arow frame this September and my mechanic (a really good mechanic, not a youtuber) assembled the bike in no time with no problems. This frame is awesome, and it flies on the road!

Speaking of which, my Tavelo Arow frameset just arrived an hour ago.
Standby for pics...

Would some Tavelo rep use a picture saved from WhatsApp?!  ;)

No, I am not "Tavelo". I am an Italian private individual who spent his money to buy Tavelo Arow and rides it happily 3 times a week. Wanna my strava? If you like to know, my bike works very well and I did not have any issue since now.

These are the latest picture of my Tavelo Arow during my ride onto "Montecassino Abbey" in Italy.
This bike is great on climbing too.

Nice you got the grey one, I was all about this colorway when the frame was first announced. I was sad it wasn't one of the original colors available.
