Hello,
wanted to warn you,
ordered several parts from Bikinge Store via Aliexpress
First wrong adress on the parcel, after contacting my local postal service i could find the parcel
3 products missing,
first trying to contact the seller, he wanted to check with his warehouse,
no response
opening dispute with aliexpress to get refound,
only the cheap products have been accepted,
still open order over USD 58,
Aliexpress is on the sellers side,
still trying to find a solution with the seller,
instead next step is using paypall

the sweep is 2-3 cm vor the VB-R-168
that's the only thing i don't like on the bike
if i grab right next to the stem it fits perfect,
but most of the time i grab the handlebar at the breaks and than it's to long

I would go with 54 and the shortest stem available
it has a very race oriented geometry stack to reach 1,34 for 52 cm and 1,37 für the 54 cm frame
with the bigger frame you also won't have such a big difference from the saddle to the handlebar which i would prefer

i ride the VB-R-168 with integrated handelbar,
you can order the handlebar alone as well
http://www.velobuild.com/products/carbon-fiber-road-bike-integrated-handlebar-with-spacers-for-hidden-cables-routing
only thing you should be aware is the curved shape,
i suggest to order 2cm shorter than normal

Hi, first ride with the POC glasses yesterday,
fit is ok,
nose clip a bit thight
not very dark glasses, especially next to water or in the evening when the sun stands not that high,
maybe one of the replace glasses works better for this conditions
very positive glasses don't fog up at all

« on: June 14, 2021, 09:02:12 AM »
custom is done,
nearly all parts have arrived,
decided to mount a 1x12 speed on the 26 frame,
think i have to change the crank set, chainline is to wide,
chain runs very diagonal even drops ob the front chainring,
not sure how to solve this, as there is not to much space to the frame

really nice bike,
love the clean look,
not a fan of the cable routing beside the rear shock,
but most of the frames, don't have a better solution

depends on inseam arm length preferred position
but if you like your old bike, it will be to long
sizing down the frame, also reduce the stack which i personaly don't like at all,
if you are fine with the stack, i would accept the handlebar or switch to a straight one

Regarding the handlebar please be aware that it is curved,
depends how sensitive you are to this, i calculated a 440/120 which fits perfect next to the stem,
but if i grab it next to the breaks its 2-3 cm to long due to the curve
you can see it on the picture i added
