Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Re: Velobuild GF-002

Hi PeteyPablo

Sorry to jump on your thread, newbie here :)

Ive had my GF-002 now for some 9 months but ive got terrible play in the headset. Did you have any issues with yours? Mine seems to be out by a couple of mm's

Your help would be most appreciated :)

There’s a section in the road bike forum around this issue. I’ve been lucky and haven’t had this issue yet, but I’d check out the thread “ VeloBuild Headset Play Issue Using Separate Stem/Handlebar: Resolved” and try this. It sounds like getting a c clip without the raised nipples fixed it for some while others have just filed the nipples down on their c clip. Hope that helps

Finished the build.

Sram etap 1x setup 42t by 10-44t.
Cable routing was straightforward, went with the integrated stem and it was a breeze.
Really happy with the paint and finish work. Frame quality beat expectation.

Frame came in yesterday. Starting the build today, everything so far looks really good. No pain build up on connection points and an etap setup should be relatively smooth.

Frameset should be arriving Monday!

I’ll make sure to take some photos for all who are interested.

The build is setup around Sram axs xplr 1x etap setup.

They didn't set any ETA.  I ordered one week before Chinese New Year (they could have placed the order for the hub and spokes)
Assuming normal turnaround times for the frame, it's 7 days for painted frames (plus 15 holidays), by Feb 7 the frame should have been ready.
I did a followup on Feb 18, and Chris only mentioned the frame to be in the paint shop, and that he would keep me posted

Estimating one month delay on getting the spokes and hubs, the wheels should have been ready late February. 

I ordered around the same time and have been less than impressed with the updates/communication. I just got asked to pay more for shipping… since they changed providers. Be prepared if you ordered wheels too.

We are now in 2nd week in March and no updates so far.
