Great job

And if you want something a bit more fancy; Blackspire Mono Veloce.
Sugino messenger is also an option;

Me too!!

Even same brand tyres won't necessarily be the same size

Very true I already experienced this with Conti mtb tyres and Schwalbe road tyres. Also Conti gp4000 was wider than the newer gp5000 (in the same sizes).
Best thing to do if you want to be sure is trying to find someone with exactly the tyres you're after and ask and also ask their rim width

I have this one in silver,done about 600km with it now and still looks like new, no stupid branding on it either.

I love that extra bit of aluminium welded behind the headtube, such a strong look

Looks pretty good too, better than the original Shimano rings.

That tiny little notch is better to do by hand anyways. With an angle grinder it's too uncontrolled.
Note; I think it's a stupid idea to do this and mess with your own safety.

This^

Please also fiddle with that saddle angle...

Bump :)

Stunning bike

Maybe leave the rear tyre and get the same up front in 37c. The rear will wear out quicker so you can use it as spare.

Why do you want 40c in there so badly anyways? Get some 35 or 37c, problem solved

This sounds like a GXP BB being used with a HT2 crank.

How does it handle? Like a real touring bike/ tank or still a bit playful?
I really like the look of the frames.

Because of the adapter there is no step anymore, it's basically a straight 24mm spindle. So the axial loads are now shared between the 2 bearings, like with Shimano cranks.
And apparently the bearing quality of Shimano is better too.

I love that, nice job! Post some pictures of the build later please:)

Same here

Thats amazing!!

Imagine how much better this would look with skinny rims...

I like Weiss frames but this is anti imo, mainly because of the paint and wheels.

They are not.
The Sram axle is stepped, which causes the nds bearing to take all the axial load, causing it to wear out quicker than the ds one.
