Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame

I’ve got about 250 miles on my vb-r 168 after some initial problems ( some my own) I’m pretty impressed compared to my tried and true pinarello f10

Hey Berzerko!

Nice build - thanks for sharing. This is an Ultrega Di2 (the new one?), isn't it?
I want to build up the 168 frame with a Di2 group set as well. Did you face any issues building up with the group? How and where did you fix the battery inside the frame/seat post?

Thanks,
eico

1. Yes. It rotates so cannot be perfectly flush with headtube
2. The stem should have small indentations where those pins go. Make sure you align the stem exactly so indentations match with pins on spacers.
3. Yes. I am not a fan of that VB cap. You can't have those fancy caps on Ali express fit on it.

Thanks coffeebreak!

Working on it...
I thought I got all parts I need upfront (before the frame arrives) but I forgot the flat mount adapter for the 160mm rear disc ...  ::)
