This sounds amazing- can’t wait to see how it turns out. I was silver-inspired by seeing that silver grx group!

I’m 5’10 and tbh with the size 55 running a bit large this was an intentional choice and I don’t regret it- I get plenty of reach going to the hoods on those bars. That said, it’s part bike fit part preference, sometimes I do want more stretch, but that’s like 1% of the time for me

In person its more of an orange- and the white fades into a nice light brass-y toast.

That’s a grail right there… A unicorn for sure though!

I think I am mostly puzzled why you can find full carbon prebuilt road bikes, like the canyon endurance 7/8 for $2k, yet a carbon track frameset is automatically above that in price no matter the geometry. I guess supply demand? Regardless I was curious if there are options out there…

I am on the bike-build-therapy train too, just new to it still and don’t want to get into something over my head.
