Thanks to both.
Maybe it was the first frame builds. As regards the fork dunno. Some user a while back complained about a big gap between the frame and the spacers. I guess water can go in. Anyway I don't ride in the rain ahaha. It's more concerning when cleaning/washing it

« Last post by xXROGXx971 on Today at 11:30:22 AM »So I got the integrated handlebar today 
. The packaging was very great and the handlebar even has a bag for some reason. I believe the headset that came with it is pretty much useless for this frame because there is a big gap between the frame and the headset cover. Only Lexon's frames are compatible but I can still use the handlebar with the other headset.

« Last post by Asco on Today at 10:59:28 AM »Nice, the Pearl White looks really good.
I asked the exact same question to Perry and he said no
. In the dark green it's not a big deal so I'm not willing to wait another month for it anyway. The lighter colors look a lot nicer without the holes I think.

They include clamps for both 7x9 and 7x7 by default. Currently, I'm using the 7x7 without any issues.
Thank you for the link. Must have missed that. That for sure does not look right. I don't think higher torque would help seat it correctly. Rather destroy the clamp or the seat clamps as it presses against it oddly.

Is it size 56?
I ordered the frame already too in size 58 (0mm setback and 100mm stem).
Saw some posts of people complaining about the fact that the frame has no "hole" To release water either in the frame or in the fork, yet still decided to test it.
My frame has a 1/8-in hole beneath the bottom bracket for I guess water egress
