BB (octolink) threaded in easily, smooth up against the
bb shell. but damn you mr. shimano! plastic bb cup?
and then you engineereeded the bb 0.2mm too thick to
use the steel cups from the UN series. that's just evil.

cane creek headset (S-9) pressed in easily.

paint is smooth and glossy. has a groovy
brushed aluminum headtube badge and a
matching badge on the right chainstay.

welds are clean.

came with all mounting bolts, seatpost
clamp, cable housing internally routed.

other than the lugwork, compares favorably
to my $700 mercian frame from 25 years
ago.
