Re: Hygge Aero Carbon Frame
Basically to use my spare carbon wheels which are all rim brake. I also have a mechanic rim brake groupset. If I was to buy a dics brake bike I'd have to get a groupet and wheels. I have disc. You can get an Ultegra R8000 2x11 for 300-350 these days (second hand) December 12, 2024, 08:29:41 AM |

Re: Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D)
Is that 550usd for the integrated stem/handlebar or the one just with the stem? quoting myself (from the same part that you quoted, even): "for the frame set as described on the LC website". From the LC website: "Frameset includes: Frame +fork +seat post+clamp +headset bearings+spacers +thru-axles+ HBR13 integrated handlebar" Paintjob in total was 215 USD. I would recommend just to reach out to the LC team, e.g. Jim Lee. They are super helpful and responsive and can give you the most detailed and up-to-date info, especially when it comes to shipping / customs / duty and any extra wishes you might have.

Re: Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D)
Any idea why the geometries from LCR017-D and R1058-D dont match? Are they not the same frame? I don't think that they have the same frame. It's been a debunked myth that's been perpetrated online December 13, 2024, 10:12:16 AM |

Re: VB 177 or VB 268
I'd go 177.... more aggressive geometry (would have saved me $$$ to not get a 130mm stem Tavelo Avro), standard seatpost, isn't a ubiquitous Tarmac SLx clone

Re: Lightcarbon: New LCR017-D (or Yishun R1058-D)
Would anyone who ride the LC frame mind telling me their height and inside leg? I am 165cm the inside leg is 77cm, my frame is 52 with stem 100mm , less (49) would be short December 22, 2024, 10:05:02 AM |

Re: VeloBuild VB-R-268 frame
Is the seatpost between the 268 and Sl7 interchangeable?Someone wrote here that he contacted with Chris and ordered the seatpost on their site for 25$. December 24, 2024, 04:49:22 AM |

Re: VeloBuild VB-R-268 frame
Yes, 25$ for a spare seatpost. Just tell Chris it's for 268, and buy the seatpost from the website accessories page. I'm loving my 268 so far. Only gripe I have with it is the paint quality. It's really frail. Some frame protection on the chainstays and around bb should be done while building it. Other than that, I'm enjoying the ride. It's dead silent with no creaks to be heard.

Re: VeloBuild VB-R-268 frame
Frame arrived. The color looks awesome. TBH its ice break cherry red color. At the first check there arent any imperfections on painting. Maybe one cons.In two places (on upper site of downtube near sterer tube and middle of top tube) ice break effect is visibly weaker. Ordered 23-11 Shipped 18-12 Arrived 7-01 (delayed Due to National Holiday) January 07, 2025, 12:41:22 PM |

Re: Speeder Cycling SC-R55D
How.much did it work out with the pre-tax clearance to EU? I think theres no more light and standard version, they only sell one. Frame with thru axle, spare hanger was 900usd tax and paypal fee included I also got clamp for carbon saddle, but its not needed for 0mm offset seatpost, its only used for 15mm offset January 09, 2025, 09:04:38 AM |

Re: VeloBuild VB-R-268 frame
To all of you which will use mechanical groupset. FD grommet have very soft screw so keep in mind that little more torque will destroy the screw socket totally (like i did  )
