My initial impression is that this bike is definitely a great value for what you get. Nice wet paint job, good full carbon fork, WCS headset, etc. It's been a very long time since I've purchased a new frameset since my preferences have really drifted away from what the market offers these days, so I'm excited to build this one up and get some miles on it. Your shining review definitely lends some confidence, as does my experience with my SwissX, which has been nothing short of a fantastic bike. First order of business is to drill the BB for a drain hole.

I am not nearly as atavistic as you when it comes to bike technology, but this bike is so good that I just sold my Enve Melee yesterday, and it has mostly killed my desire for most posh carbon road bikes, that's how much I like riding it. (I want a UDH compatible TCR in a color I can't resist; that's it.)

Yep Ritchey lists it as an XXL - around a 59 top tube

No matter how many steerers I've cut over the years. There is always the pucker factor and second guessing. Did I measure that right?

Flip it so you are leaving the cut off part to drop not the fork itself. Unless this is just for show....also the cut guide goes in the vice not the steerer. Maybe you already know this. If so I'll shut up. |

Came here to mention the guide goes in the vise, not the steerer

Fear not. The photo was taken in the measure twice phase before I committed to the cut.

I'm in the measure 5 times, hold breath while cutting camp. Go for it!

If folks are looking for one and have been brought into the "Light of the Logic" (LOTL), I'm selling my 53 over in the classifieds...
