Re: building wheel with straight pull hub: d411/412 spoke hole offset? If I remember well, the offset was 0, hopefully you get a more reliable info.
It is 3 cross.

You may note I didn't actually cross the 3rd.
As a test, since I tension them by ear, the sound was cleaner.
And to see if it would impair the stability. Apparently not.

... Maybe I'm getting cross-eyed from staring at this image for too long, but this looks like 2-cross to me: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32824613259.html ??
I'll stop staring at it, as I see 2 cross too  :D

What did you use to protect the chainstay ? A bar tape ?

also on Skype no reaction. Apparently they don't want to sell me a frame. Maybe no shipping to EU anymore. I'll go elsewhere.
They answer, they ship to Europe.
It is not your usual shop you enter in, buy and get out with the product.
Some patience is sometimes required.

Does anyone have experience or HAIDELI  or Miva?

What's the link between the two companies?

I've built two FM-M009 hard tails, 4 years ago.
They were well built, and are still ridden with no problem at all.
And joy[at]haidelibicycle.com was really helpful and easy to deal with.

Re: New here, but not new to china bikes... But looking for some additional info They were a bit spammy on this forum and a bit more expensive.
Just yesterday, the sulfureux Hambini received one, and did a very nice review of their aero disc bike.
Telling it was very well made.
Well... like many frames we discuss here.
It is funny seeing people discovering what we know for years  8)

Re: Difference in quality between ~600$ and ~1200$ frames?

To stay on topic, my reason for buying from a brand is that they have more skin in the game ...

This is an anguish tax  ;)
There are many named builders here that have as well their skin in the game.
With a more approximate English, and less or no shiny YouTube videos, and with reasonable prices.

Re: TanTan TT-X21 frame Very nice result. Congrats!
Did you consider ceramic coating ? It looks to resist better to scratches and hits.

One day I will paint my frame :)

They have a lot of local distributors. Several in Belgium, where I picked some of mine up ;-) (a few years  ago)
Thanks again. I didn't see it on their website. Good news, to motivate me to paint a next build.
I'll ask my sister who's art teacher some advice  ???

Re: building wheel with straight pull hub: d411/412 spoke hole offset? Mine are the 28h.
As Roger Musson advise to store them, I found back my calculation sheet, it says... 2 cross and zero offset  :o
However when I look at them today, as per the pictures here, I see 3 cross.
So, being able to build and still ride them hard 3 years later seems to be a kind of miracle  ;D
