Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame That area should be faced so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Re: Fake eeBrakes G4 Hi Jeff,

I also have these and the bolts are different also we probably all have the same serial on our calipers.

I have over 4000km on mine with some serious descents as well and so far so good.

Re: Velobuild VB-R-218 that looks like it is completely separated from the frame.
Warranty request and hopefully Velobuild helps you out.

Re: Velobuild VB-R-218
At this point I can’t even get the UT cup off on the non drive side
I’m stumped, because it looks like the paint has cracked and the threaded insert has an aluminum face that’s stuck to the carbon frame or maybe the frame outer layer is broken

I will ask for a new frame when their holidays are over and Chris responds, but it looks like I won’t be able to use this bike or assemble a new one for several months

I see a similar hairline paint crack line on the drive side, in which case both inserts should come out, making it easier to inspect any damage to the frame.
Definitely wouldn’t want to try and rebond these back and it would be safer to add in a bb infinite 30 insert there, though that would now cost $230 and extra tools etc

I guess I will know next week if they will do a warranty or not and I’m hoping they will do the right thing
They have sent over missing parts when requested, though it takes time to show up


Edit:
Just received an email from BB Infinite, who probably did not understand the issue and asked me to use loctitie and hand tighten the cup and did not have a product that could help me
This is despite their own website saying they have a product that fixes this very same issue  (assuming frame is intact)

Starting the warranty claim on this frame...wish me luck here

not to be a debbie downer but from that previous photo, you uploaded the whole area around the bb cup is completely cracked I wouldn't try to ride that frame.

Re: Speeder SC-R52D The Nich and R52D are not the same frames there's a difference on the top tube near the headtube and also at the junction of the top tube / seatpost.

Re: Fake eeBrakes G4 Hey Jeff!

Yes they take the same pads currently using Swisstop Flash Evo Black Prince has my rims have an external width of 29mm (had to remove all the spacers from the brake calipers)

Super happy with the brakes been doing long descents with them no problem.

Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame a direct hanger has advantages over a regular one for Shimano rear derailleurs on top of being lighter.

Re: Standert Bicycles (Berlin Brand) - Who Makes Them? Any Alternatives? Hey Pat,

The frames are made out of these tubes - http://www.dedacciai.com/ and as far as I know most of them are built in Italy.

So you could maybe reverse search from that but to get a value offer on something like that will be much harder than plastic (carbon).

Re: Standert Bicycles (Berlin Brand) - Who Makes Them? Any Alternatives? Surly's are nice bike's but there's zero chance I'd use one has a race bike they are built like tanks.
