Re: TanTan TT-X38 Build

I’m unsure what to do. Start a dispute? Ask Aliexpress for a partial refund?
I would start a dispute, it's the only thing we can do to help raise the QC standards...

Re: TanTan TT-X38 Build Very cool bike Sebastian - congrats! May I ask how much out of round your steerer tube is (I'm the guy with the very out of round one)?

Re: TanTan TT-X38 Build Short follow-up on my steerer tube issue: I opened a dispute on Aliexpress and after 3 weeks of sending photos, documents about acceptable tolerances etc. I got a refund of 100 Euro + 20 Euro because the seller sent me a cockpit of the wrong size (400x100 instead of 420x90). Now I'm going to cut the steerer, sand down the areas which are out of specs the most and then send the fork to a carbon repair guy who will produce and glue in an alloy insert to strengthen the steerer.
Btw this is my frame (chameleon blue/purple & matt black):

Re: TanTan TT-X38 Build My steerer looks similar from the inside.  For other reasons, I showed it to a carbon repair expert (see above) and he said that this is no problem.

Did you end up doing anything to your fork steerer or was it fine after you cut it down?
Since I had to sand it down at two places quite a bit to make the cockpit-stem fit, I gave it to a carbon repair guy who glued in an alloy insert that goes down far below the headset bearing.

Are these much stiffer as in harder to bend and harder to route around tight turns?
I'd like to make the rear brake on my rim brake bike less spongy. But since the cable is completely internally routed, compressionless housing is not really an option.
I have combined compressionless with regular housing in the tight turns.

Re: TanTan TT-X38 Build I made some TanTan decals. An EPS-file ready for plotting is attached in case anyone wants to have them too.
