I built it up with SES 4.5 wheels and Red Etap and since this is weightweenies, full bike with pedals and garmin mount is about 7.5kg.
I just had a quick spin around the carpark and the bike feels super planted with the ENVE 27mm tubless tyres. More comprehensive feedback after I do a long ride this weekend.
Workmanship and finishing of the frame looks decent to me. No major/glaring issues so far.
Let me know if any one has any questions and wants specific feedback and I'll do my best to reply.
In vid's of the melee i've seen small discrepancies between the stack/reach they paint on the frame and their geometry table. Can you please confirm which size do you have and what is the stack/reach painted on the frame? Many thanks!!

What size stem and bar are you running?
Is the stem angle adjustable like the other Enve aero stem?
I'm still waiting for the stem and the bar...

FYI
I requested some info. Stem has a fixed angle 7 degree and weighs 170gr and is created for the melee.
I asked if the full integrated handlebar would be available ? No
Fork should be around 450gr and seatpost around 220gr

My stem length is 100mm and the bar is 40cm. The flared drops of the SES AR handlebar can be quite significant - e.g. at the hoods it is 40cm but at the drops it is 45cm. I am OK with it but some riders may hate it. See https://www.enve.com/product/ses-ar-road-handlebar/ for the measurements.cpark wrote: ↑Mon Sep 26, 2022 1:31 pmIt looks damn good!

The stem angle is -7 deg and fixed.
Here are more pics of the bike. Had a chance to ride the bike more and I'm loving it. Not exceptional in any particular aspect but really good overall - climbing, flat, decending, etc. I think the standout feature for me is being stable/comfortable over rough tarmac. But that is probably more due to the tyres/wheel combo - SES 4.5 with Enve 27mm tyres.

Enve has very detailled info in their website. Very detailed manuals with all the measures. The top cap also and you're correct. Besides, they answer really quickly to customer inquires.wickedstealthy wrote: ↑Sun Nov 06, 2022 3:51 pmTopcap is 8mm and not included. That's what i have been told.
