So I finished this build late on Sunday.

 Popped it through the wash today and I must admit this bike is a real head turner!

I struggled to source a BB and eventually settled with buying an overkill Ceramic Speed BB - damn these things spin forever!

Sram force AXS was an easy mount up as always.

I chose a few additional manufacturer extras for this bike - the Bossi titanium stem, seatpost and finishing kit(spacers and top cap) really paid off to make this bike stand out.

As always brilliant Enve AG25 carbon wheels coupled with Maxxis Rambler 45c tires ensures this bike will have only the plushest of rides.

A set of super flared Ritchey WCS carbon bars with some lovely contoured drops finish this build off to give a great first contact with the bike.

Another stunning build 👍

 

Please tell more about the 47 and 52 ...

So it allows you to move the front wheel to a more forward or backward position within the fork to give you a faster/slower responding bike. 

in essence changing the fork rake angle. 

its a nice idea - i will have to play around with it to see how well it works. 

currently it is set to 52mm
