Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: VeloBuild VB-R-268 frame
« on: January 23, 2025, 10:14:35 AM »Yeap I googled it and now can see that is a sram dub BB86 PressFit. Fair enough.
This is the sram dub BB86 PressFit axis for Crankset Force. The tightening pair I can not say, since the assembly was done in my local trek distributor, but I have to assume that it was with the best tools.
They are currently on vacation in China and I can't give more information about the case, I am waiting for a response.
I am in with Serge_K just wrote. It is likely to be just pain cracking which may have been there from the start. Keep us posted once you find out till then I would just ride the bike myself personally.

What BB did you fit there and what torque Nm did you use?
The 286 comes with a BB86 and that metal ring you have there is something I don't kind of identify as a part of a BB86 pressfit BB. What's it it?

Yeap those are ceramic too so you must be right they must be identical.
How do they compare to hydraulic?

if it is, i ran it on my tt912, n brake power is adequate for me on 140/140 setup with mt-rt900 rotors

Has anyone bought the new version of these?
The master cylinder was moved inside and pistons are now ceramic.
They look sleek!

Same here. I am planning on fitting a mechanical ultegra with hydraulic shifters. I am yet to receive my frame yet though.
1,070g with rear axle, hangers, bolts, etc, so under 1kg in chameleon green size S.

« on: January 09, 2025, 02:09:02 AM »Got my frame size 51How.much did it work out with the pre-tax clearance to EU?
Took about a month for it to be shipped and 20 days for shipping, eu tax prepaid
On first look everything seems good, mounts are faced, no rough bearing seats, bb is faced and inside seems smooth
Only the headtube to downtube juction has something yellow? on the inside of the frame not sure what that is, everything else is smooth.
Was expecting the frame to be a bit lighter but its not too bad.
Weights:
Frame with rear and front derailleur hanger and bottlecage bolts: 930g
Fork uncut: 397g
Seatpost(0mm offset) with saddle clamp: 178g
Thru axles: 73g
UDH: 28g
Will post after i build the bike, still waiting for farsports hypers to be shipped.
A bit of an oversight on my part, deda super box stem only allows 2 brake cables and 1 di2 cable, i had in mind to run 2 cables to the junction in downtube and then to battery, will probably file the stem a bit to make space for 2 di2 cables, should be fine i guess?

Is this the standard or light version of the frame? Not sure if they actually offer the two yet.

That looks perfect to me. Yes there's usually a small gap so you can preload the bearings with the headset expander.

« on: December 26, 2024, 07:49:25 AM »I've put some protection after the fact... I mean, the damage to the painI always put frame protector decals in my frames as there are loads of loose chips in the roads I normally ride.....so it isn't the paint quality sometimes. No paint will cope with loose chips hit to it at 45kph+ haha

« on: December 26, 2024, 04:47:05 AM »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.Would you not put some translucent frame protector decals?

Has anyone paid using Bank Transfer or Western Union method?
Trying to figure out if saving in the PayPal fee is worthy or avoidable.

Is it easy enough to get stems aftermarket for the 177?
Not sure if the ones for 236 are just the ones Velobuild sells....Anyone knows?

Is the seatpost between the 268 and Sl7 interchangeable?
Is it easy enough to get a replacement seatpost for the 268?
Wondering wether to order an extra one now with my order.
