Hygge Aero Carbon Frame

[TidyDinosaur]

Have you had any further issues with the seat post? I saw you said you went to 10nn, however someone in a comment on the Henry Chung YouTube review commented they did theirs to 6.5nm and it cracked the frame.  He hasn't said how it ended up with Hygge in terms of any replacement.

I just looked at the review on YT and there is no comment like what you said... Could it already be removed?

OK, thanks. He has a lot of video's about the Hygge frame already  Did not see that one.

Could anyone measure the chainstay height at the flat mount mounting point?
I would like to make sure that I get the right screw length for the rear caliper.
Thanks a lot!

20mm if I measured correctly. The standard Ultegra caliper bolt with the special tip for the circlips was too long. I used a shorter bolt I had lying around without the circlips

Thank you! Okay, my default Shimano screws are for 25mm I think, so that matches your observation.

Correct. it is 20mm.

I just received the frame. I will update regularly and debrief when it is assembled.

The package is well packaged and the setting and equipment are great.

For now, everything is perfect. I also ordered the wheels which were in the same package as the frame.

I am attaching some photos and the weight of the equipment in size M.

Communication with Hygge is perfect. They are very responsive and attentive.

I'm really looking forward to other peoples experiences... I find the bike to be fairly instable especially at speeds above 35km/h... To the point of getting scary when descending...

Wondering if it maybe is the 380mm handlebar with the short 80mm stem...

Doesn't sound good.

[TidyDinosaur]

Damn this bike sounds like absolute garbo

Nah, could be user error... That's why I'm looking forward to other reviews...

Based on my experience it will be the 380 bar. I put a 380 wide bar on my BH G6 and found the same thing. Really twitchy and unstable when on the hoods, particularly descending. But when in drops was a lot more stable, and narrower so had the aero benefits for that.

I got a 380 for my Hygge build but haven't yet built it up as I'm stuck in a sling from shoulder surgery for another 2 weeks yet. Good thing about hygge bars is it's is 380 at the top and 400 in the drops. 

Do you feel more aero with a narrower profile? Noticed any speed difference on solo rides?

Thanks for the feedback. I also have the shifters tilted inward quite a bit, so it could indeed be a combination of factors. I have adjusted te shifters now to be more straight. Let's see if that helps.

I rarely put my hands in the drops as I am not really comfortable with that. I just can't seem to reach the brake levers (i did already adjust them to be closer to the handlebars) good enough to give me confidence in braking when in the drops. Maybe I'll have to practice more.

I like the aero position and I do feel I am faster with it. But the previous bike ( I only rode it a month) had 40cm handlebars so not a big change and before that I rode my gravel bike on the road so no comparing there

I ride a 360 bar and feel perfectly fine on 60kmh descents, though. Doubt it's the bars.
