Hi,


 What is the weight of the frame with the handle bar and fork ?
It is not shown on velobuild.


Thanks

i have red in the previous pages that his frame comes around 1100 and fork around 470
but chris told me the frame should be 970 and 420 for fork

i already order mine and still waiting to shipped
is anyone else measure them after received it?

Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame so i received my frame today
okay here's my review so far :
The color is bad ( its not even resembling even an inch from what i request ) i request laser blue metallic and come blue pastel  :'(
i'm disappointed , and going to paint it later after a few rides

except from the paint the frame is good
I have XS size
Frame with hanger come in 1101 gram (quite heavy paint around 100gr)

Here is my frame and will build it with other handlebar , i do find the bar is flexy and i don't like it
Should i sell it or keep it ?

My Build may weight around 7,4 - 7,7 Kg

Did you manage to internally route the cables using your handlebar?

hi
i discussed it with my mechanic, and tomorrow will show you the result.
planning to drill the steel spacer but going to buy hard plasctic one from the aliexpress which weight less
the one which comes w the frame is quite heavy

Question on the Handlebars and seatpost.

Did any of you require carbon paste for them or not
This can vary build to build, so just curious how the 168 fares in this regard

When i did my first ride the seatpost keep sliding down 2 times even though i apply some carbon paste
i will need more carbon paste to keep it in position
but i tried to tightening the seatpost as hard i can but don't put too much force and it works well
