I'm not sure how this will work out. There is no guiding for mechanical shifting. I assume you need to route the cables through the handlebar and the whole frame to the exit points. That will probably lead to a poor shifting performance, if it works at all.
Hi guys,
took some time to build the bike mainly because I was missing components and because of lack of time. However, the weather here is anyway still too bad to ride it outside.
Bike weighs 7.3 kg including pedals and wahoo mount. Only the bottle cages are missing...so pretty much spot on 7kg without.
Only things that I still need to work on are:
- fine tune the shifting
- check if I like the brakes or if I swap them to the stock ltwoo ones. I like the silver look of the zrace but they still feel a little spongy compared to the ultegra brakes on my old bike. Maybe I just need to re-bleed them again, let's see.
The build-process was generally pretty simple. The only issue I had was that I needed tro drill out the whole for the di2 cable in the chainstay as it was not properly drilled inside. I think there were some sharp edges inside so the cable didn't want to go through. The rest was straightforward.
I will wait with my first ride until we have dry conditions here
Future updates to arrive at around 7kg ready to ride might be a lighter cassette (I use a 105 11-32 right now), lighter chain and maybe 140 rotor in the back.
From last year, i dont think I posted these.
Very nice frame, wants to go fast, and compliant / elegant. Wheels that deep in a cross wind in the mountains though... meh.
So basically the frame was manufactured for that company for a while, contract ended and now the mould is open for companies like Velobuild?
On the back of the seatpost was a text, GRAAL. Anyone heard of a brand with those?

Other color choice.
I made some TanTan decals. An EPS-file ready for plotting is attached in case anyone wants to have them too.

Nearly finished my build.
Final result will come at the end of this week.
Goal sub 7kg will be reached - any tips to save some weight?
Nice build tho!
Hello,
yes I received mine last week ago. It's under construction. As long as i can say, everything is pretty good. I am going to post some pictures in a few days.

By the way, they are stopping the sell of this model.
