I'm working on my first bike build using this frame (ordered from Tantan) and I'm looking to avoid a fully integrated cockpit - I've already got a bar and stem I like. If there's anybody here who is familiar with the headset that arrives from Tantan/Seraph and could give me more info about my routing options I'd really appreciate it. I don't see that there's any ports on the downtube so I'm hoping I can do that through the headset without the accompanying bar and stem. Failing that I'll need to find a compatible headset that can route brake hose (I'm going AXS) so if you have suggestions there please let me know - thanks!

Update here: after emailing tantan to explain what I needed they have the appropriate headset for semi-integrated routing and are sending it to me.

If the Tantan frame comes also with the same headset like the Tideace, you can see the cable routing on Lupus build. It goes below the stem into the frame.

Yep that’s my ideal solution, if I had realized it ahead of time I probably would’ve just ordered from them instead but I took it for granted that the frame would have traditional ports. I’m trying to get more info on the headset mine will ship with but the pictures look different than the Tideace headset.

Which stem do you want to use?

For the sake of putting it all out there, I’ll be running a Fox 32 TC suspension fork and I’d like to end up using my PNW Coast bar and something like a Cane Creek GXC stem but I was going to fit a few old stems of different sizes first to figure a length out first.

I wish the frame had traditional ports on the down tube but since it doesn’t I’m assuming I’ll need to go in via the headset.
