Built my Ridley HeliumSL like this,came in well under what a stock bike would be and with some better parts as well.

Got my LBS to fit the BB as Shimano don't do a pf bb30;they fitted a Wheels manufacturing one which has been brilliant so far.

Re the bb30 im open for a decent one to get if you have any recomendations

Your 6800 crank won't fit, if that's what you were going to use as it's hollowtech? Pretty sure there will be a solution though. BB30 seem to have a reputation for being very problematic anyway so probably worth ditching in any case.

No im using cannondale spiderings cranks

Don't start sowing the seed of n+1...

Too late - a 50cm Grey/Red frame ordered Many thanks to @coco69 for posting the details.

@huwsparky I intend to replace the BB30 with a Praxis BB30/PF30 To Shimano and fit a Ultegra Di2 groupset. I have been hankering after a Di2 setup for a year or two and this frameset at this price gave me the perfect start to my 2016 project.

Are you sure it's di2 compatible?

 

[coco69]

No problem....

Frame or adaptor ? - I am sure the frame is compatible but not the adaptor. Fallback is I have a FSA crankset on my old Synapse which is BB30 and works with a manual Ultegra setup. I will wait until the frame arrives before moving onto the next stage of purchasing/investment

Got a callback from Paul's cycles. They had problem with my order - no H-Mod available only 'standard Evo'. They were very apologetic and helpful offering me a great deal on the alternative frame. I check that neither the new frame or the Hi-Mod that I had ordered were di2 compatible so I cancelled the order and got a full refund.

I was very impressed with the level of customer service from Pauls Cycle over the phone and I would not hesitate to use them again. N+1 can wait a little longer.

@coco69 - hope your order is OK it was a smashing deal.

@vickster and @huwsparky thanks for the advice.

Yes frame come no problem and is currently being built.
Never bought a frame only before so quite impressed when it came with rear mech hanger..headset..bottom bracket and carbon spacers

Now I'm looking at this and thinking" Get the hi mod frame and the Caad10 with Di2, then put the components on the hi mod, sell the CAAD10 frame and you have a Di2 Hi mod for +/- 1750"

Time to stop thinking and hide the credit card
