Mustn't be diving too deep in the forum if you don't know people want wider rims in 2024. They'd be nice wheels in 2021.

Anyone know if yishun sell this frame in Europe/Italy?I tried to contact them via email but never receive an answer

Pretty sure you can buy it direct from Yishun Germany

Torque specs on a bike are wet.

Any integrated bar/stem with something like 35 or less top with 40 or more drop? I can't find any chiner versions as of yet.

Something like the bmc bars or what I'm guessing the new enve's will be like.

i bought 5 groups at the same time. i had 4 bikes to build and i bought a spare one in case one would be dead on arrival or self destruct immediately. Built the 4 bikes, everything was fine for weeks, i then received a frame to review so i put the spare group on that. After weeks of "this stuff is wonderful", all hell started to break loose. The 2 dead RDs aren't the only problems i've had either. Had another problem yesterday i posted on the erx/9 dedicated thread.

That's an impressive failure rate.

I recall reading not to use the automotive brake cleaner on bike brake rotors because it leaves a residue that doesn't get burnt off at bike temperatures like it would on an automobile.

Good call on that. A wipe down with an alcohol based on the bike yesterday leaner afterwards would be safe

I don't get why all the hate for the frame, it's not like they're forcing anyone to buy it. Love it or hate, it even got GCN's attention. I'd say the publicity has worked in Sava's favor.

Sava has more traditional bikes in their line-up and the builds look quite respectable in terms of components and weights.

Awesome man, when are you taking delivery of yours? Looking forward to the review.

Anybody else bought the 1018? I'm considering it. Light, 32C, EPS moulding, monocoque, seller with great reputation (with the caveat that they just shipped a broken 17D to a forum member...).
For those who have one, how has it been riding? any points of comparison?

They're different companies...

That's scary

Guilty :)
I stand on the shoulders of giants, nurtured by a culture of patisseries, adultery and weapons manufacturing.
And I complain. A lot. For example I thought my er9 was a piece of shit when it stopped working yesterday. Turns out I just didn't charge it. I blame al Qaeda.

LOL
