Good luck with the bar tape. It looks awesome but it was by far the lowest quality tape I’ve used on any bike by a long shot. Masking tape would’ve been more durable and perhaps more comfortable too.

Great job! So many nice details. Very neat job on the bar wrap, too! What frame is that?
Elitewheels SLR Gravel with ceramic bearings with tubeless Panaracer Gravelking X1R (700*45c)
CNC bike shifter cable set (teflon coated)
Rode a very short ride and the groupset seems to shift nicely. I wasn’t impressed with the brakes, but I only did a cup bleed, and think I need to do a full syringe bleed. I will update!
Just finished a first build myself, same bars! I put them on a MTB frame to create a monstercross bike 🤘
Took my first spin today, these bars are awesome

Nice to see more open mold frames.

Your build looks great! Nice job.
Be careful with that crankset. It isn’t very strong.

Looks great, a little less housing in the rear next time. You want it to bend naturally. WIth that length it creates two extra bends that wouldn’t be there otherwise.

For now. Until you decide to swap out something.
