Hi all, frame received and now putting all together.
Build setup: VB 177 frame, separated stem and handlebars, mechanical ultegra group
After a whole evening trying to route cables through stem I´m done.... it is practically imposible. Ordered a Ritchey logic headset to route cables outside the stem
IMHO, I think that stem provided by VB is thought only for inalambric groupsets, 2 cables is doable, but 4.....
Frame looks good, I only had to sand front inner hole of brake hose in the fork (impossible for the cable to go through)
