did we figure out what headset size the stp is supposed to have yet? and what are some good carbon forks with 30-35mm rake?
i'm looking for an alpina right now but i need a wider scope so i can hunt one down for cheap hopefully.

it looks like they're getting a restock on the 09's in July. But i had a quick sizing question in respect to this frame in particular as i'm planning to get it while it's still on sale. Search turned up nothing good, neither did google, didnt want to make a new thread
I'm 5'7" standing on my cleats with 29'' inseam and according to this sizing chart on the FTP's (it doesnt say for which year/model) https://www.evanscycles.com/product_d...zing-chart.pdf it says i should be riding a 54cm?! I had a 54cm Fuji Feather and i had to return it cause it was wayy too big. Got a 52 instead i still feel it's a tiny bit too big. Which size would fit me best? 49 or 52?

Thanks. Last question: where, if any, is the maximum cutting point on the seatmast? Or anything that says "do not cut below this point?"

You mean 30mm rake?

How long is this deal running for? I have been lurking for a good deal on a nice frame to build up a new bike this summer.

wtff nashbar doesnt have the frame in a 50cm but excelsports has the frameset in 50 for 6 bills! I asked Fuji N.America for sizing help and gave them my measurements and they told me the 52 FTP wont fit me even though i ride a 52 Fuji Feather.
maybe another month or two, they're restocking.

A re-cap for my sake:
Nashbar FTP worth buying only if:
-Rigidity and Stiffness don't concern you
- > 44T Chainring on crimped chainstay doesn't bother you (because you don't ride on a track)
- The only reason you are thinking of buying the FTP is because the MSRP is $1,000 and aesthetics and street cred are the only things that concern you.
Is this more or less accurate?

I asked nashbar about the new shipment
U lucky guys who got the crimped stays
Thanks for your inquiry. These are 2009 frames. All have the deficiency of the 44t max ring limit. Price is not schedule for change.
Cheers, Luke

of my friends that ordered the nashbar ftp, none of us got a non-crimped one.
