Metal Frames / Re: Another Seaboard GR02
« on: April 13, 2024, 03:43:52 PM »
 I've recently build up my seaboard gr02, in the special Blue/Purple glitter color way they have. Tbh the color is a bit too much for be, but oh well. This will be my main commuter, do any of you happen to have found fitting mudguards for the rainy days?

Build specs:

9.2 Kg
Cockpit: canyon h18 and stem (Had as spare, used an adaptor for 1 1/4 to 1 1/8)
Bartape: Og-evkin (Actually feels really good, paid 8 usd)
Wheels: Koozer cx1800 (Build seems pretty impressive for the price)
Tires: GP Urban 35C
Groupset: Sensah Team pro shifters, 105 r7000 rear derailleur, Shimano Cues u6000 42t Crankset
Brakes: Illpro flatmount semi-hydraulic, 160 illpro disc rear, sram centerline 180 in the front
Seatpost: Tooseek super light
Saddle: Ryet ultimate full carbon eva finish (Only 110 gram, and feels really comfy)
Others: 105 cassette, dura-ace 11 speed chain (Acutally bought a kmc chain from ali, but turned out to be a fake :/ )

Overall really happy with this frame

I have the cheap OG-evkin bar tape, and it's actually really good, and comfy.

I have these hubs on my MT30 wheelset from ninevelo.
I've only ridden them for about 150km, but they feel really well made. I initially had a problem with the freehub (Microspline), where the cassette went out of line when torqued down, as seen in video below. Somehow the cassette could sit longer down on the spline, on one side, never seen this before, probably a machining issue.

I have these with 54 tooth rachet.

Ninevelo sent me a new freehub in 4 days, and that fixed the problem.
Let me know if you want any more info on these hubs. BTW they are S&S bearings

I should also note that I've tried fitting my star rachet from of one my dt swiss 240 rachet exp hub, and they actually fit these mt330 hubs. So spares can be bought, from dt swiss

That sounds like an absolutely terrible idea. And you're 1 catastrophic failure away from death.

Why would this be more dangerous than any other wheel? The difference for disc rim and rim brake rim is literally just the brake track...

Searched for H-works hubs on Aliexpress and while they aren't available standalone (anymore) related results show 9velo wheels and 9velo official store products. Looks like its the same company. However if you look up h-works website none of the hub model numbers match with what 9Velo lists under their wheel specs.

They are indeed the same company, and that isn't true, only for their newer wheel lines. If you look at their mt30 mtb wheels, they use the m330 hubs which are listed on H-works eg https://www.h-works.cn/products/hw-m330-6b-rear

Btw you can buy their h-works oem hubs from alibaba https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/XiaMen-Hworks-Factory-customize-6-bolt_10000014109693.html

I have a set of the Ryet/Lexon bars and I'm very happy with them. They're stiffer and the finish on them is nicer than my yoeleo bars. Cable routing was fairly easy as well.

Which version of the Ryet bars are these? I have the og-evkin hb1300 in 38/100 and they feel super flexy, especially on the indoor trainer. Also I don't trust og-evkin really after hearing about their no warranty process. I really like the look of these ryet ones.
