Re: Carbonda Cfr 1056
Katie just sent me the photo. I went matte RAL 2012 it looks rad. I'm stoked.


That looks gorgeous! I have a feeling it looks better in real life, with outdoor lighting.

Ordered August 8th, size M. Katie sent me pictures of the painted frame:

That's a really good color. Matte olive? Can I know what parts you'll be putting on it?

Thanks you! Yeap, Blue purple chameleon. I'm boring that way, but I love it.

Re: Computer mount compatible for Lezyne devices?
Thanks! I jsut ask myself why I did not find it... maybe because it is only available in the UK. Sadly considering shupping and customs it is double the price of an original Lezyne mount but still only the adaptor to a Garmin mount :-/

Ah! That's a huge shame. Yes, I thought that since there are plenty of Garmin mounts on aliexpress, a Lezyne to Garmin adapter would be useful. Definitely not worth it when including shipping and customs!

Maybe you could purchase a 3D file of a Lezyne mount with Lezyne interface from the ebay seller and find a 3D printer service in your country?

Re: Carbonda Cfr 1056 Just received my shipment after being given a tracking number on Tuesday. The box looks in good condition and I can't wait to open it once I'm off work.

Re: Carbonda Cfr 1056 I'm in love with the finish! The frame was wrapped with bubble wrap and foam rolls with plastic caps over protrusions.

Definitely glad I went with a Carbonda over name brands (which in my country do not even have frames above 54cm).

This is a 56cm frame with 110*420 integrated handlebar. I highly recommend FSA headset for the integrated version. Going for Shimano 105 R7020 and Elite-Wheels BWT. Will update with better photos in the near future.

Peering down the headtube. I like the look of EPS molding. The bit coming off near the green QC sticker, I plan to use some clear nail polish.


Out of focus shot of the frame in real lighting conditions.


Weight of frame+seatpost  (1323g)


Weight of uncut fork (483g)


Weight of integrated handlebars (417g)

Re: Recommendations for a carbon saddle?
Found this new company called Cosy Saddle

They're making this 3D printed saddle


Looks much better executed than the ZTTO. According to this video, they're also developing carbon and short nose versions.

Just ordered one piece out of curiosity. The weight doesn't bother me much if there is comfort to be found! They also told me that the carbon rail version will be ready for sale by the end of this month. If I like the current one enough I'll probably order the carbon rail version as well.

Re: Recommendations for a carbon saddle?
Where did you buy it and for how much?

I got it from the Alibaba link that StiffWeenies shared.

US$61.50 for the saddle, with US$23.80 EMS to South East Asia. I didn't have a forwarding agent, so that shipping quote was from them.

Not the cheapest saddle I've bought from China, but very curious to see how it stands up on long rides.
