12:20The reviewer, Jordan, discusses the 2022 Elves Falath Pro Disc Brake Carbon Road Frameset as the main frame for his Chinese carbon bike build. He states he had direct contact with Elves to get a custom chameleon two-tone paint job with his name on it at no extra cost. The frame cost $1200 new, but he received it half-price due to a collaboration. He chose the frame based on positive reviews from another builder, clear communication with Elves via WhatsApp for sizing advice, the custom paint, and its geometry being relatively similar to his current bike. The frame was ordered on May 29th and arrived on July 5th (36 days). It came with a carbon seat post, headset bearings, spare rear derailleur hanger, BB86 bottom bracket, and spacers for the integrated stem and bars. The frame can handle 28mm tires.
