Hi, how do you lead the cables from the fork and rear brake through the Headset?

the cable from the front brake comes out of the fork on the right side and has to go to the left side,
if i lead the rearbrake on the left side of the fork it scratches when i turn the handlebar

any idea or picture how it works best?

thanks a  for an help

added a picture which i think should work best

Any luck with with? Sorry no suggestions from my side, haven't started working on my build yet

Does anyone know where I might find a rubber grommet type thing like the one in this picture?  Tantan does not ship one with the TT=X21 (god knows why - it's only a $1 item). 
TIA, Lloyd

Would not mind one of those either. Don't think it'll be included with the velobuild 168

The matte chameleon looks great. I got the chameleon purple and it shipped a few days ago. Hoping it doesn't get held up in customs long.

I'm looking for a new project. Any recommendations for a light chinese road bike frame which is suitable for climbing the mountains?

I'm assuming you've considered the VB 177 frame?

That's great! I see they are starting to pop out!

Can anyone notice difference with these production frames compared to what was expected? (I don't see anything specifically btw)

Project finished! Did a quick 25km test ride today and my first impression was absolutely great. Will update on my experience again when I've done some more rides.

See https://roadmeister.cc for more info.

Rides reallyyy well. Still fiddling with the disc rotor alignment and derailleur indexing a little but that is to be expected. Teething. Only thing that has sucked are those TT pro tyres. Two punctures in 100mi??

Awesome and it sounds like it's time for tubeless!

My VeloBuild arrived last week and I just got it built up. Its great, the construction seems really good. everything was precise and in the right places. There were definitely a couple little details that had been overlooked. For example, it would have been really helpful to have a shift cable race under the bottom bracket but instead it was just a hole. Which means that you have to remove the BB to replace the front shift cable. But this is at the end of the day a little thing. Overall, really good experience. Excited to get a sense of how it rides after getting a couple 100 miles on it.

Great looking build. How does it ride so far?

Does anyone have a list of torque specs for the VB-R-168? I’ve asked but received limited information. Thanks!

Have you been given an ETA for shipping? Waiting for a 168 frame I ordered prior to the Lunar New Year holiday. Thanks!
