Road Bike Frames, Wheels & Components / Integrated Handlebars
« on: February 26, 2019, 10:02:02 PM »
Does anyone recommends some Integrated Handlebars ?

I've some from chiner Integrated bars from 2016 but they flex a lot and the Internal cable holes are tight to the point that if I bring the shifters higher to a better ergonomic position it snags the brake cables.

Just finished building yesterday. Got it to 10.3kg / 22.71 lbs. To make it sub 10Kg I could save 100grams in a race saddle and 250 grams on lighter wheels with DT240s.

New frame just arrived. I will post the build progress here as I go through.
So far the frame arrived and it weights 2070grams.

It will run XX1 on SID XX fork and XT brakes. I'm moving the components from my 036 cracked frame.

I just found this: http://www.hongfu-bikes.com/html_Products/Mountain_Frame/29ER_Mountain_Frame/2017/0302/480.html
It looks like modern geometry and new style of shock.

Trying to find more geometry info and will share with you guys.

Cyclocross Frames, Wheels & Components / Belt Driven Carbon
« on: September 19, 2015, 11:22:28 AM »
Has anyone seem any of those ? I've gone through the dark corners of the web and could not find anyone making it.

I'm looking to build a belted cyclocross bike, most likely will use Nuvinci N360 or N380 or perhaps Alfine 8 or Alfine 11. Not sure yet, but sure I want a belt so after wet rides I can hose it off and be done with it.

29er / IP-036 Shock Tune
« on: September 05, 2015, 01:51:52 PM »
I remember some folks fiddling with the shock tune and changing to a medium or hard mode.
Does anyone remember or have posted any results ? I've been going over the threads but could not find much conclusion on this science.

I've a Monarch XX 165x38 and it's working well, however it often get close to bottom, I'm 182lbs and running about 140psi. It also gets hot while riding technical trails but I think that's normal.

If anyone can report on improvements on tuning changes, it would be much appreciated.
