So...

 

Taken a while to source all the parts, and with some help from the LBS for things above my pay grade, this is the result.

 

The boys from Calculus know their stuff. Design process was amazing, delivered exactly what I wanted, when I wanted, how I wanted.

 

Build spec as follows

 

- Calculus Custom Titanium Frame, size XL (well sized to me so no real size chart)

- Speeder Cycling Flat Mount fork

- Chris King Inset 7 headset in black and white

- Black Inc seatpost

- Bontrager Blendr stem

- Easton EC70 carbon bars

- Ultegra Rs685 Hydraulic Brakes and calipers

- Ultegra R8000 rotors

- Ultegra R8000 Rear Derailleur

- Verve InfoCrank power meter and crankset - 110BCD with 53/39 aero rings

- Token C50 wheels which were converted to 12mm Thru Axle disc front and rear with DT Swiss 350 hubs

- Fizik Saddle

- Bontrager RL Cages

- SupaCaz super sticky Kush tape

 

Took her crit racing this weekend for a jol, and the bike is every bit as racey as the lightest carbon bikes out there. 

 

If you are at Jock the weekend, say hi and drool when she comes past

Wow, she came out nice, what a beauty!

It was a pleasure working with you on the design and well done with the build Brad, your choice of components really complement that frame.

Enjoy many many miles of smiles on her.

So update on this post

 

Took her to Jock, climbed and hills like a goat, absolute pleasure to ride.

 

Been a solid 4 months of testing, and couldn't be happier.

Frame is compliant, yet stiff enough to put the power through. Geometry is perfect (the lads got it spot on for me).
