Re: TanTan TT-X38 Build

I faced the disc brake mounts and now the brakes are perfectly free of rub. I bought this little tool from Icetoolz that I really was quite skeptical about. But it worked a treat. It's nowhere near to what workshops are using but it's way better than using sandpaper.

Intrerested in the Icetoolz Shuriken #E272 facing tool that you used: I understand how the screw mechanism would work for postmount.
How did you use the tool on the flatmount system, can you expand?

Re: Zero offset seat post recommendations? Maybe just my point of view, but: saddle adjustment is not to adjust reach length - saddle adjustment is done to find the correct position over pedals & bottom bracket area (to avoid knee pain or muscular issues).
Once that saddle position is fixed, you will use stem & handle bar to modify and adjust your position on the bike.

Re: Sensah Empire FD Stiff Agree, the Sensah FD is far away from being a masterpiece of design and function.
It will work, however, but in my experience it is sensitive to routing of housing, bends and cable friction.
If you can optimize above, it is okay - but nothing more.

Re: Another Seaboard GR02 Congrats, efficient and nice looking build. Curious how the EVA bar & kinesiology tape will hold up.
I have been considering something similar myself, not being a particular fan of the grip & feel of most EVA tapes.
Personally I would prefer a thinner solution - comparable to the SRAM Super Suede, but at Chinercost...

Re: Frame recommendations around 60cm. Hi, 195cm tall, 96cm inseam and full of understanding for the problem - very limited choices of frames from China, especially if you are looking at endurance rather than race geometry.
I have bought and built a Velobuild VB-R-099, if I am not mistaken the frame is also available as Long Teng LTK268-D, Workswell WCB-R-268 and TanTan TT-X21.

Seatpost setback is used to adjust your position over the cranks, position on the bike is then determined by stem, spacers and handlebar.
I like my VB-R-099, but the saddle height to bar drop is about the maximum that I can / want to tolerate.
