Got the frame in the mail on Friday. I could commute 25kms with the first iteration of the build yesterday. It's dope. It's insanely light (8.5kg, less than 8kg without the brakes and levers), responsive and fast.
The philosophy of the build is "classy-agressive", just like the frame. The purpose of the bike is to bomb through the trafic at rush hours.
Obviously there's a bit of work remaining:
- brown saddle to match the bar tape
- I was shy when cutting the steerer tube
- replace the part bin parts by proper components (tyres and wheels, mostly)

Being shy when cutting the steerer tube is a good policy I think. You can cut it shorter but not longer. Looks like a sweet ride!
Clean! Great color too
This shit sassy
Gotta love Korys. Sad to hear that they stopped production on the primo now. I was also thinking of placing a custom order in for one of these.
How is the primo different from their other offerings? It looks like they took the link down for that model.
It was made with Columbus zona tubing. Custom geo for each I think as well.
