I see that Probike supply store, (Ca, US) has a few frames and complete bikes (RH3 only) low stock on line also available at the shop, so it means they got the December delivery!
I’m waiting for the February shipment. !!!!!!
 
I am December delivery but told that things are a little behind, hoping they get the container end of next week, and then I imagine a few more days before it’s ready to go out, but not sure.

Did you figure out your crankset/chainring set up? Since I can't find 155 sram cranks I'm debating between 150 or 160. Bb height is pretty high compared to everyone else.

Yeah I ordered the e13 helix core e-spec. I emailed them and they said they fit, they come in 155 length and with their Xmas code I got them for $63 shipped. They actually look pretty decent in person too. If I was going to spend a little more I’d get the Pinnd ones in silver, but for so inexpensive I couldn’t pass the e13. Also the Pinnd in silver are currently out of stock which is another reason I got the e13.

Regarding chainring I’m going with the sram branded t type 36t steel that they make for transmission.
 
Are you guys going with 600 or 800 battery? I missed the first batch of frames and there’s only a few left for the second batch. I’m thinking the 600 and getting the range extender for the longer days.
 
You can't go wrong with either size I reckon. I ordered with a 600 specifically for the weight. I think the 600 will be dialled for 95% of the stuff I do. If I start running outta battery I'll just buy a 2nd battery in 800 flavor. I would rarely max out a 750 for reference.
 
Teaser.

Has anyone gotten tracking yet? Based on their Instagram post it looks like shipping should start any time now.
 
Mine arrived Jan 18, a day late because UPS had a "mechanical issue". RS Signature Frameset custom build, 46.5 lbs as pictured. Size RH-3, 29/29, 600wh battery. New motor is so quiet, my brain is trained to think I'm in some low power mode :)

 
One thing that did surprise me on the new frame is brake cable routing is different. Coming off the same size prior version my hose was way too short. Just something to note if you aren’t installing new brakes with full length hoses they may not be long enough.

Sweet build mate, we're almost twinning haha. Is that a saint rear brake line 🤔

Haha good eye. Yea the cable routing was different than the prior crestline so my hose was too short. My buddy just happened to have an old saint hose laying around.
 
Yeah my brake line is going to be touch and go for sure! Especially with those trinity fittings.
 
At least the shimano hoses work if they end up short. The BH90-SBM looks almost identical to the intend hoses.
