Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Build Sanity check Winspace T1500

I decided to do my first custom build in a Winspace T1500 Disc. The frameset just shipped and I have received most of the parts. Anything that I am missing?

* Winspace T1500 Disc Frameset size Small 44cm. Includes fork, seat post, carbon rail adapter, headset, spacers, stoppers, thru axles, and I believe even a Garmin mount
* Winspace Zero Integrated Bar and Stem 95X380
* Hunt 44 UD Wheels already setup w/ Continental GP5000 28, tubes, SRAM Paceline 1600 F/R rotors and SRAM Rival XG1250 10-30 cassette
*Prime Primavera Carbon Rail Saddle
*Set of Supacaz Super Sticky Kush Black Tape
*SRAM DUB Road Bottom Bracket BB86
*SRAM Rival AXS Crankset 165mm 2x12 48/35T
*SRAM Rival eTap AXS RD (no Battery but I have spare ones)
*SRAM Rival eTap AXS FD Braze-On
*SRAM Rival Flattop Chain 12 Speed
*SRAM Rival eTap AXS Hydraulic Disc Brake/Shifter sets Right and Left
* Two carbon cages from Amazon
* Shimano 105 SPD-L pedals
* K-Edge Pro chain catcher, will this work with SRAM Rival AXS FD?


I am going to have a shop build it up since I don't have the tools or experience to do so, but is there anything I am missing?

Thanks

It looks like you've got just about everything covered. If you don't, the shop will let you know.
Not sure about the chain catcher. I'm running a Rival 12 speed. Properly adjusted, you shouldn't have any issues.

Yeah my main bike has Rival AXS eTap as well and I wanted to put on a chain catcher after I bought it but my LBS keeps telling me you don't need a chain catcher and if he put on on it would be more of a hassle since setting up 12 speed can be finicky. I figure why not with this build since it's being built from the ground up.

Have you had any drops with your Rival 12 speed? Most people I speak to claim if properly setup it doesn't need a catcher while I have red others who had their FD drop the chain a handful of times

None. Then again, I didn't have any on my Di2 bike, either. Anything not properly adjusted will give you issues.
