Re: TopCarbon TCGF066 gravel frame Alright, pulled the trigger on the XS! I guess I'll keep updating this thread to keep track of the journey. Not my first China build, so it should be smooth sailing... hopefully! I also got the integrated handlebar, but chose a non-flared option instead.

 Will be converting my wifes canti cx bike build to this, so besides a bottom bracket and calipers, I should have everything I need!

Re: Velobuild VB-R-168 Frame
Hi everyone,
I would like to replace the screws of this brakes by titanium screws:

Could someone please tell me how long should be the M6 brake's screws? I don't have access to my bike now to check.

I've replaced most of my bolts with black Ti ones, what you need is:

Steerer Clamp Bolt   M5 x 18mm   x2
Steerer Clamp Bolt   M5 Washer   x2
Front Brake bolt   M5 x 16mm   x2
Front Brake washer   M5 Washer   x2
Rear Brake bolt   M5 x 35mm   x2
Rear Brake washer   M5 Washer   x2
Seat post bolt   M6 x 30mm   x1
Seat post nut   M6 x 20mm   x1
Seat post nut   M6 x 13mm   x1
Seat post bolt   M6 x 35mm   x1
Computer MountBolt   M4 x 25mm   x2
Computer MountBolt   M4 Washer   x2

Hope this helps.

Re: Velobuild GF-002 Hi All,

I finally finished the build of the my bike.

I'm not totally happy with the feeling of the cable actuated hydraulics brakes because I had to swap the outer cables from the jagwire compression less for a cheap Clarks that were quite more flexible and allow me to fit them through the headset without kinking.

I will give a bit if time testing the bike and if the biting don't improve I will take it to the bike shop to have some advice.

A part from that during the short ride that I did to try all was working fine the bike rides very comfortable.

How the heck are you able to get 7 kg? WITH PEDALS what do the wheels weigh?

Deerobust 800$ - now unfortunately they have increased too much.
