Anyone know whether the fe806 is compatible with an electronic groupset? I like the look of that Ltwoo electronic gravel thing

why not ask how the 17D rides... in the 17D thread? It's pretty much a clone of the supersix, except the downtube that's shaped very different.

Oops sorry Serge - didn't realise there was a thread on the frame!

Asked a question in there instead - mods feel free to delete this thread

For me the lightweight/aero VeloBuild VB-R-268 paired with Magene EXAR Ultra wheels has been awesome so far.

That looks ace!

Is that a magene crankset too? What group set are you using?

Yes and yes. But buying the shifters and derailleurs without the caliper makes little sense/might be more expensive than buying the whole thing. Also if you have R7000 the brake calipers are pure trash in my experience. R7100 was a giant upgrade

Yeah I’d buy the whole kit and keep the unused bits as spare - although I do have the R7000 so I might check out the new calipers.

Any recommendations for a decent lightweight frame?

Not sure where do go with this now - looking at using an LTWoo Erx but wanting to track power and prioritise weight (pick one I guess) as it’s a climbing build. Does anyone know of a crankset that would fit the case? Or just a light crankset? I can look into pedal based PMs if easier

Hi All,

New here, looking to build up a bike using an Elves Vanyar, I want it to be on the lighter side of things but also want to record my power output, I’m at a loss on the compatibility side of things as I’m new to building - the elves Frameset comes with a “either a BB386 -24R Shimano compatible, BB386-29R SRAM DUB or BB386-30R Rotor bottom bracket.”, I want to pair carbon chainrings (looking at the riro GXP ones) with a magene PES p505, would this be possible?

Thanks!
