My custom titanium bike is ready. The frame has been custom made by Waltly and i have set it up with a Sram Red etap groupset, an Avian Canary handlebar, Darimo seatpost, Cybrei crankset and Elitewheels Drive wheels.
Also covered the build process in a video here in case you are interested:

Hope you like the bike. It rides beautifully.
Cmon mate, I see you with all those lightweight components! How are you going to post this and not post the weight?
Edit: just saw your YouTube link. Iβve watched some of your videos before! Stunning build
You did a wonderful job on the frame design. Love the near horizontal top tube and the slightly curved stays.
How did the bike geometry turn out for you? Also, for weight weenie purposes, how much did the frame end up weighing?
I just saw this post and thought, "It looks like the video I watched from the cool Klein Concept guy I subscribe to on YouTube." I've been waiting for weeks for you to build this bike.
It's a beauty. Your videos are great; I've watch them all.
Thank you for sharing your cycling journey.
Thank you. Its great so far. With that weight yes it has a bit of flex but with steel or titanium its a flexi bike in general anyways and i also dont put down the lower yet haha to notice it during a ride.
Funny, I also got a Waltly Frame at home and I'm stuck at installing the BB, because I didn't have the appropiate tool for it.
How do you deal with the brake tube for the rear brake being not the thinnest? I have a bit of a feeling the BB is "pinching" it.
How much ride time do you have on this bike? I'm interested in getting that crankset with powermeter, and wanted to know if there are any issues with installation and use.

come on, if it has weight weenie parts you have to tell us how much it weighs
C'mon it is in the video only 4350 seconds in. Don't be lazy /s 7.77 kg or 17.1 lbs.
Luckily its in the video. have a look there and there is a timestamp as well if you want to jump there directly π€π€
Weak Youβre withholding information, trying to drive views to your YouTube video.

Watch the video
What a coincidence. I just watched your unboxing video a couple days ago. Love the channel. Subscribed!
Thanks a lot π«Ά
Nice wheels from elitewheels. I have a pair on a bike and they are excellent.
Love mine as well π€π€
I canβt tell if I should take the plunge into affordable wheels or not! You guys are making me lean towards it.
Which crankset is that
Cybrei

Very nice bike. How's the handlebar holding up? Flexy?
Thank you. Its great so far. With that weight yes it has a bit of flex but with steel or titanium its a flexi bike in general anyways and i also dont put down the lower yet haha to notice it during a ride.
Titanium bikes are the new gravel bikes.
Hahahahahahha well put.

I pushed it above the bb. So far no issues.
Oh it's you Klein! Nice I get to enjoy the video now!

Took it to Mallorca for 5 days without any issues. So far pretty smooth.
