Re: Velobuild 177 vs 218 Unless you put both bikes in a windtunnel, you will never know which one is more aero. Pick the frame you like the most.

Re: ICAN A22 frame, request experiences I don't think paying for an inspector is worthwhile for single purchases. As someone said, vb is always the cheapest. You can't expect the best build quality when you are choosing the seller only based on price. They are the cheapest for a reason. They have to cut costs somehow, and it seems to be in QC. It's up to the buyer to decide if paying the extra few dollars to hope for better quality. The extra dollars do not guarantee perfect qc, but the odds are increased.

Re: My experience with Velobuild wheels and requesting after sales support.
Now it's my turn to reach out to VB.
Looks like I've developed disconcerting flex with my handlebars.

I've sent them photos and videos as well as ride data on when the issue arose.
I am not a mega power sprinter (max 1,100W. 940W for the ride in question), nor am I very heavy (75kg)
No crashes.

Below is a photo of what the steerer looked like before and after
Also a pic of cracking on the handlebar.  This is there older HB10 handlebars - can't tell if that is carbon or just paint cracking

I'll see what the court of public opinion says.  Part of my just wants to throw in a 90mm expander plug and see it that works, but a failing handlebar in traffic would probably be a bad time....


Looks like a hairline crack. I personally would not risk it.
In the bin they go.

Re: My experience with Velobuild wheels and requesting after sales support. Dont worry about it. You saved my winter with the thinkrider trainer and helped me with my handlebars. You have my email. Lets get it done!

Re: Disc Brake Aero Framesets Allowing For Non-Proprietary Stem? I think the merida reacto uses a Vision stem? I forgot which Far east brand makes a copy of it.  I might be wrong.
