Strange mine went on without any problems.....Might be some lacquer there that need a light sanding for the bearing to fit....

Hi, I just received a notification that my frame has been shipped. To prepare for the build, I have a question for those who already received theirs.

Are the bolts for mounting the brake calipers included with the frame? If not, what length should they be?

I plan to use 160mm rotors in the front and 140mm in the rear, so I won’t need an adapter for the rear.

Thanks!
I'm using the same combination of 160mm in the front and 140mm at the rear......My bolts are 16mm for the fronts and 30mm for the rear.....

First ride was interesting, had a bit of a issue with the headset being a little loose, and the saddle tilting when i went over some bumps...The ride was on the stiff side but not harsh the 32 Vitoria Corsa helped with that...the weight was 8.5g with the Garmin Radar, Headlight and Computer...And 8.2 without...

Since I am 1,90 m tall and was allways riding a 58 I went with a 58. Reach is 10 mm more than my old bike so I took a 1 cm shorter stem with 110 mm.

I worked out.
What is your bottom bracket to seat height?

??? I am 180/181 cm tall and the saddle height is 82/83, I have more legs than bust. only 58. with a 350mm seat post, there would be 6-7cm left inside the frame. too few. as well as having a disproportionate saddle/handlebar height difference.
How do you ride on a 54 frame?
I'm at 192cm with a BB to the seat of 84cm, a 400mm seat post in a XL frame would work for me, but not a 350mm seat post...
