Do you know the seat or head tube angles? They don't list them on the sites geometry.

P.S. One of my fav bikes on this site for sure

I am thinking of ordering one a small. I am 5'7 and was wondering if that would be a good size. Also if when you ordered the frame do they send it to you with a thread-less headset or how they do it. Thanks in advance

I'm also 5'7" but it all depends on your proportions. Mine is a tad small but then again I'm using an inline seatpost, with a seatpost with some setback it would be more confortable for sure but I'm used to it by now.
About the threading, I gave the fork to a friend so he could thread it for me, no biggie

Sick build! Just wondering, do you know if the tubing on the Lo Pro is butted at all? I can't find any relevant info on the Affinity site.

yay nice clean bike ;P
just a question: how long are ur crankarms? do u have any problems with pedal strike?
I want to buy the affinity in 52 and I would like to run them with 170mm cranks.

8bits says:

My pedal is 165mm and I do not have problems with pedal strike. The only problem is with the tight geometry, you will have to get used to a lot of toe overlap.

thanks for the fast reply; so would u think that 170 will still be ok?

Sure, have you measured 5mm? It's next to nothing.
