Sorry for bumping this but as I'm looking for an IA frame I'm forced to ask you this: How is the weight between both frames different? They're all sames as far as I know, perhaps there may be 100gr difference depending on which brake integration you own.
The frameset itself (without handlebar) is 3.1/3.2 kg. Add the handlebar and the aerobars and it's up to 3.8/4.05 kg.
It's mentioned in FeltBicycle.
Perhaps the former IA frames come with lighter handlebar and stem, but in term of compatibility you're quite limited, and you can't just swap the stem/caliper of your choice.
I mean I love the brake cover feature that the FRD has for example, but if I can't even exchange some of the parts installed on my IA14, there is no point for me to afford this frame. I think going an IA10 sounds like a wise choice since it's has bigger upgrade options, like the tririg stuff.
Regards
