Re: Two new Winspace frames coming (soon?) I'm sure I'll get the Agile frameset at some point to review. And while I don't have any scientific way to measure performance, I can't imagine it being better or even equal to the T1500/T1550. Granted, Winspace isn't trying to position the Agile to compete with that frame anyway.

Bross is gonna be infinitely better value. And the headtube is ugly af ngl. Also what kind of goober came up with that geometry for size M

That price tag is pushing me toward the Elilee Blize. Again. And according to Weight Weenies, Elilee has finally worked out all their frame issues.

EDIT: ...BRUH what's up with the size M geometry??

Yikes 2 grands seems higher than what I expected...
What seems off about the Medium size in particular that you noticed if you don't mind me asking?

for some reason the medium frame does not share some common dimensions (chainstays are shorter (403mm vs 408mm on others), which results in  reduced tire clearance (28mm vs 32mm), bb sits lower (271mm vs 273mm)). additionaly stack is only marginally higher than on the small version, but 40mm lower than on the large one.

i think that winspace only produced medium sized frames for initial testing, adjusted some things, but did not redo the molds, only made the adjusted ones for the other sizes

What saddle clamp does Hygge install? Do they include both 7*7 and 7*9 clamps?

Thanks

It is a single vertical type clamp, so both 7*7 and 7*9 saddle rails are compatible. I do not yet own the frame but the clamp style is clear from the pictures.

Re: Hygge Aero Carbon Frame I have a VB-268 frameset delivering later today. When it comes it to building up these super budget frames I find that a careful consideration of 3rd party components, wheels, and hardware are far more important than the frame itself. At this point I don't even bother ordering handlebars or headset bearings anymore.

Obviously a customer should not need to do this if the brand is providing decent equipment. But usually this is where the cost cutting measures have been made. Don't leave the 3 contact points up for chance.

Quality handlebar/stem/wheels from reputable brands, extra long compression plug, and a reliable bottom bracket. The marginal upgrade of each component collectively can transform most $500 frames.

It was stopping at the #7 marking which is like 18cm in the seat tube

Also for future reference. official torque specs from Hygge
Seat Post clam: 5-6 nm
Stem: 5-6 nm
Handlebar: 5-6 nm
Compression plug: 6 nm
That's already very deep I think. You best check with the seller, but I think you can cut some cm's off the seatpost. So don't start filing down the frame

Re: Hygge Aero Carbon Frame For reference: I had the same with my tfsa frame. Could only insert 14cm. They told me you need about 10cm insertion.
But check with the seller. Every frame is different. I know I cut my Hygge seatpost

Re: Hygge Aero Carbon Frame Did a 125km ride today and the play did not come back. So for now the 9Nm on the expander (higher than recommended) and the 5Nm on the stem bolt seems to hold.

But upon inspection it seems like my expander plug did not move, but just the stem maybe? I'm not sure if I should add some carbon paste on my stem. Anyone has suggestions?
Yes you should use carbon paste on the stem/steerer tube interface.

Been a while since I built up a bike... not done an internally routed one before. Seems fairly straight forward but just wanted to check especially with those who have successfully built one of these.

The bike came with two teflon cables already inside the frame ( white cables) one for rear brake and rear mech, but not front mech and not front brake. They are just about long enough so the ends protrude out of each end of the hole - what's the deal with these. Are they to use as guides or can I use them as cable housing? They're not long enough to reach the bars so i'm a bit confused here. I could extend with a bit of compression less housing but this doesn't sit right with me.

Will the bars allow 2 x cable housing internally on each side? The inside seems a bit tight using RISK compressionles housing.

The exit holes for the rear mech and rear brake has no grommet. Is this right? Just seems a bit cheap...
Yes, the hoses are just guides. Do full external housing.
I did full mechanical so 4 cables is possible. No experience with Compressionless housing
And indeed, no grommets supplied. This is a shame.
