Wow, that's a pretty bad oversight.

I was wrong. An allen key with a ball end fits.

You're not really supposed to use those for tightening anything, though

There's some more images on their FB page

wonder how they installed the headset cover to make such a smooth transitioning with the handlebar

anyone up for recording an ASMR build up video ?

I'm sold on the look of the frame, although i find the all-black pretty boring. Does anyone know if they do colored clearcoat over raw carbon?

That transition between the seat post and the sadle is something of the most ugly thing I've ever seen on a bike..

The rest of the bike looks great. Like some weird aero monster. But my eyes keep wondering to the sadle

My bike choices are 80% aesthetic and 20% common sense. I wish it was the other way around!

Intersting that they posted the bike with the new Lightcarbon handlebar, must be a customer bike

Here's how it looks wit a normal stem and one round 5mm spacer beneath it.

Thanks for the pictures, looks good!

Thanks Lorn, that's really helpful.

Other images as requested...

the frame in the facebook post seems to be a 490 from my measurements, not sure if it's mentioned but it's a small or even extra small

on the velobuild website you can pay a little extra for custom paint, depending on the amount of colors and/or effect.
