Hi guys,

The Chrisses have been postponing my shipment over and over again. Originally it should've been sent out mid February. Is this normal?

It may have to do with covid. and the shut downs china has. It effects the supply chain from making the needed materials to transportation.  So we all still need to be patent with how quickly we get our bikes.

Crazy idea for night time safety... UV florecent wheels... So I just saw a video and thought... That works pretty damn well...  Like that greatly increases visibility.

UV fluorescent wheels.... There would be rim with basically glow paint or better tape(because it removable/replaceable.  Put them on your deep dish rims.

The hardest factor to over come is UV LED placement. 


BEST part is it looks cool as hell. And makes you a ton more visible.

Re: Velobuild VB-R-218 I just started my built and the hanger bolt for the groupset I bought a while back from someone on this forum.... thread is marred. I just ruined one of my hangers.

Good thing I got 5 more. And I going to try to re tap it and get a new one.

Also I seem to have a good BB alignment. Woo Now to get the brakes faced.

New groupset (Ultegra 11sp Di2). Went back to the LightBicycle AR45s with Challenge Criterium RS tires. Still need to bleed the brakes and weight it. 7.82kg as shown.




If I get another build together after my 218. I want maybe these colors...

I've seen a few frighteningly cheap 3d printed saddles. They don't look great, and they're listed by stores that have been opened in the last few months. Not confidence inspiring.

That second one is straight up injection molded totally not 3d printed. Same as the other 14 buck saddle.

I would get the one trace velo uses. That one is proven at least.  Then again I am using a super cheap saddle. I dont know if I like it or not.
