Well, exciting for me at any rate 🙂

Despite this frame supposedly arriving in February subsequent to ordering it in December, supposedly in plenty of time for Ironman South Africa, it actually arrived in April, so I didn't get to race on it.

However, now it has arrived, it's certainly a step up in quality from the Chinese frames I've been buying recently 😀

It's a Speed Concept 9 frame, a cool $5k list price 😯

Fortunately being part of a Trek team I didn't pay anything like retail, but still not an inconsiderable purchase 🙂

I've stripped all the Di2 off my old frame, now I have the fun of building this up. Since I've started chopping and DIYing Di2, the mechanical build of a bike is the quick bit, the soldering and wiring takes much longer!

Cheers, Rich

It looks like an Airfix kit freshly snapped off the sprue 🙂

Looking forward to seeing it built up.
