Do you know how high it can go on a 54? I need a 77cm saddle height.cnsn wrote:Yes it is 54.

(bb center to top of the saddle). im thinking of getting a 54 foil too and have ~71cm.saddle height and worried that the exposed seat post might be too short.cnsn wrote: ↑Thu Oct 05, 2023 8:14 pmI have received my M size Foil RC 30 today. First of all as I said in my previous comments I had doubts about buying the size M but after riding around 10 kms with the bike I clearly see that L(56) would be too big for me. My height is 181 cm, inseam 84, arm length around 61 cm. The bike feels drastically faster than my 2022 Giant TCR and it is surprizingly comfy too. 105 di2 works flawlessly. I have updated some components at the purchase.
- Replaced the wheels with Ultegra WH-R8170 C50. The wheel choice is mainly about my weight. I am a heavy person (100+ kg) so hookless was not a reliable option for me. These wheels are hooked and they works with really high pressures (109 psi max). The 1570 gr total weight is not so bad for a 50mm deep wheelset. For a short ride I can say they are stiff, rolling great and fast.
- Handlebar is replaced with Roval Rapide 38cm. It fitted to the alloy stem very well but we need to slightly trim the small caps that used for hiding the cables at the connection point to the stem.
- Tires replaced with 25c GP5000S TR and installed them tubeless. I am thinking to replace the rear tire with 28c in soon.
- Saddle replaced with Fizik Tempo Argo R3 160mm
- Rotors replaced with 160mm ultegra rotors.
- Added Stages left only power meter Ultegra R8000 crank arm. (I took it off my TCR. Below price doesn't include this one!)
- Didn't install the stock bar tape as I read bad comments about it and installed Supacaz Super Sticky Kush.
Total Weight: 7.93 kg without pedals. My rim brake M/L TCR Advanced 2 with same tires, mech 105 and zonda wheels is 7.95 kg with pedals and the foil with ultegra pedals is just 8.19 kg. I can say I am very happy with the weight.
The total cost of the bike with the added components: 5,988$ + I have ready to ride spare wheelset, a nice syncros saddle and a chunky alloy spare handlebar )
Btw the bike comes with 11/34 casette. I am also thinking to replace the casette with the ultegra 11-30 in soon.
The paint job and the color is great but it is not very attractive in low light conditions as in the photo ) Under the sun it really shines.
