Carbonda Cfr 1056

[Specialf.]

Is anybody 6'4, 193cm and has the XL of this frame? Is it big enough? I already have the 696 in 61 and it is a great fit. Thanks for any help.

I wear size XL but I'm 1.86cm tall. I think it's too small for you. you need to compare the geometry measurements to those of the current frame you use.

Finally I fixed the rear brake problem by using a 140 disc without adapter.
This is my setup:

• Groupset shimano 105 di2 (r7170)
• Wheels serenade Novatec TRF40S - Sapim cx-ray
• Steam Vision SMR 80mm
• Headset FSA ACR No 55
• Handlebar Ritchey Comp streem bb
• Ceramic Kactus

Weight is 8kg with all components

I'm the same height with a XL, fits great for me, absolutely no complaints.

Looks great indeed! Would you happen to have a better close up picture of the finish and paint?

Hi everyone,

I am starting to build a Carbonda 1136 frame and I am facing a potential problem. I ordered the non integrated version of the frame so that I can use a regular handlebar, easily adjust the front setup, stem length etc. in the future.

So I have two holes on the sides of the downtube for the derailleurs housings, and also an entrance and exit on the fork leg for the front brake hose. That is it, so I am wondering where the rear brake hose is supposed to come out.

I was expecting another hole for the rear brake with this external version of the frame, somewhere at the top of the downtube. So I am wondering: is it a mistake from Carbonda ? Or is it normal with this frame and the rear hose is always supposed to pass through the headtube ? In the latter case, you would necessarily have to use a semi-integrated type of headset (FSA NO.69 SRS or Acros is52 ICR if I am not mistaken, or the FSA NO.55R for the fully integrated setup).

Thank you for your insights!

You are right, thanks. I copied my question and pasted it there

My 1056 once again. Weight is 7,34 kg - without tool bag.

wow great weight.  What size is the frame?  besides the red group, what wheels do you fit?  mine in size xl mounted on force and with 1500gm wheels weighs 8.2kg

[Bonpensiero]

Normally i use a wheelset consisting of chris king hubs and nextie arx 44 mm rims. total weight 1500 g.
This VEL 50 RL wheelset should be about 100g heavier. Frame size is s.

Hi all

I am looking into buying this frameset for my next all road bike. I am wondering how the frame is regarding stifness and comfort.

Last year, I had the opportunity to ride a Canyon Endurace CF (newest model) for a week. The Endurace is known as being "comfortable", also in terms of vibration/road buzz damping.  I replaced the stock saddle and wheels for my own (pulled from my own bike) and made several rides on a standard route I often ride.
I currently have an aluminum gravelbike (Sonder Camino AL). The difference between the Sonder and the Canyon in terms of vibration damping, was big.

Is there anyone with a similar experience? Moving from an aluminum bike to the CFR1056 and could provide his/her experience regarding the vibration damping capabilities of the frameset?

Thanks a lot in advance.

I think tires will have a bigger impact on comfort than the frame. This frame will fit 32c tires so if you need max comfort go that route.

I've had 38mm tires on my 1056 with no issues.
