I dont know where you are finding a LBS that can identify carbon defects. I bet I could walk into any one of my LBS and no one in the place would have ever heard the word delamination. I went to the LBS closest to me once and asked if they had brake pads fit for a regular shimano road caliper and they took me to their mechanics, and I asked again and they all looked at me with pure confusion.

Hi guys.

I've received my frame and quality control seems not the best...
Would you accept this?







Got me worried..

So thank you for this diagram and feedback. I removed the handlebars and spacers so I could see exactly how the bearings, c-ring (i.e., split ring in the diagram), and headset cover (i.e., group cover in the diagram) were fitting. I also compared with Henry Chung's frame build videos to ensure everything had been placed correctly. I also ensured that the headset cover's pin was aligning with the hole in the c-ring.

After spending some time on this, I've concluded that there's something wrong with the interface between the headset cover and the c-ring. The headset cover simply won't descend enough to completely cover the c-ring and remove the gap. Here's an image of how the c-ring is fitting into the top bearing. This seems all correct:



Now when I place the headset cover over the c-ring, this is as far as it goes:



Again, I ensured that the headset pin was aligning with the hole in the c-ring.

I compared my c-ring with Henry's c-ring in the video of the new EPS frame he did a couple months back. The look to be the same, but perhaps different color?

Am I missing anything here?

The seatpost is totally proprietary and you won't be able to find a replacement. As for the holder for the radar light, if you have a friend that is good with 3D design, or you personally are handy with this, the holder can be designed and printed easily. Alternatively, search AliX for saddle radar light holder and there are tons of options that will allow you to mount the radar on the saddle rails, which to me looks much better than a strap on to the seatpost.

This is just an example: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002687365308.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.3.5aaf0no10no1oF&algo_pvid=7c7c7808-7f34-43f1-b156-189030e091d0&algo_exp_id=7c7c7808-7f34-43f1-b156-189030e091d0-2&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21EUR%214.77%213.38%21%21%214.88%213.46%21%40212e532617322794092774151e8e39%2112000035214453707%21sea%21MK%210%21ABX&curPageLogUid=s8VnYQe1dJtM&utparam-url=scene%3Asearch%7Cquery_from%3A

Thanks my friend for the reply!

I have saddle rails holders for varia light but since I'm using a saddle bag it's not convenient so I was searching for somethong like KOM cycling copy or something. But that's a minor problem

BTW - bike rides like a dream and does everything you throw at it! Just like you said. I crushed all my PR's with same effort on this bike. Cheers!


It will allow you to mount the radar anywhere on the saddle rails as it has fully adjustable tilt angle.

Working on a 3d printed seatpost mount for my Garmin Varia

I have been searching in the past because I would like a 0 setback post, but could not find any...

I’ve been building up the Hygge Model S and have been questioning my headset install. There looks to be too much of a gap between headset and frame, especially on top, but bearings are seated nicely.

Thoughts?
