I'm almost done with the build. Scale said 8.35k. I have just to do the air out of the brake and to shorten the fork.
Maybe tomorrow I can take pictures.

The wheels are heavier than with the normal 240s hubs. For the axle they are more heavy. Approximately 80g more.
The rims are asymmetrical and you have to watch how you install the tires. Just from one side possible.
Spokes are Sapim D-light. Cheaper but heavier than Sapim CX Ray.
But for my weight (70kg max) it is a wheel set for do everything I can do.

I hope next week my mechanic is back from holiday and we can install the rear break. After that I can install the bottom bracket and can ride :D

The problem was, that the hole for the hose was to small. I took a drill and made it bigger, by hand.
But at the moment the hose is still to long. I'm waiting for my mechanic.
Yesterday I got the wheels, new seat post and bottle cages.

Your bike looks great and respect for building parts by yourself.

The route from the front break isn't final. The hose is to long and than there is another route for it.

Thanks for your help.

It's a nice place here, where other cyclists help each other :D

This is  screenshot from the workswell thread. This switching eye looks like there is an adaptation. I think I need this. What is it?





This is my derailleur. Looks different and I think that's the problem.

Ok, today I spend some time in the garage.
The hose from the shifters to the derailleurs are installed.
My "mechanic" helps me in with the cable for the brake.
No I have the problem that the switching eye don't work with the XT m8000 derailleur :(
I'll ask the Chinese dealer to help me. Maybe he knows which I need.

Sorry, my english is not the best so I have to describe in my own words.

There is no way to put the hose into the hole. The angle is not the problem, the hole is to small. In the afternoon I´ll try it again.

So, on this pictures you can see what I mean. The hose you see is from a normal brake without fluid

Yes, there are also axle dropouts for the frame.
I have the first problem. Today I was looking for the hole where the brake cable comes out.

sorry for the bad quality.

I need a bigger hole for the cable. What can I do. Can I make with a drill a bigger hole? (the hole in the middle of the picture, where the cable comes out of the frame)

It's an old seat post from china. Diameter is to small so the post doesn't fit. And the saddle is also from china and an older one. It's just in the frame for building. The new is on the way.
