Advice on new road bike frame! Fully internal cable routing + disc
Jwzard:
Thanks for the answers. The ICAN it a bit over my budget at 900 USD excluding shipping, but seems to be a solid frame.
I've been talking to Chris and found out the r-099 only support 140 mm disc rotor at the back. I was planning to use 160 mm. Their new r-168 frame will support 160 back and I think I wait until there's some real life pictures on it before ordering.
Snacks:
I was a bit worried when you mentioned that it takes 140mm rotors in the rear because I had purchased mine already. so I decided to ask Chris and he confirmed that 160mm rotors with work with both the frame and fork. Phew
Jwzard:
That was really strange, this was the exact words Chris wrote to me "R-099 frame 140mm rotor ,fork fits 160mm rotor"
Get back to me when you got the frame please, very interested :D
Snacks:
I agree , strange indeed. I'll definitely update you when it gets here. It should actually be sometime soon now. I attached a screenshot of his response here as well.
Jwzard:
I hope you are right.
When I asked the difference between the 099 and new 168 frame he wrote "168 frame can fit 160mm disc rotor ,099 140"
Looking forward to see what you find with your frame.
