Hygge Aero Carbon Frame

[laktattausch]

I thought about this but these gramm-savings are not in relation to the performance lost in my opinion. Maybe change to DuraAce Cassette but this is a too expensive wearing part. I am riding ZTTO Cassette on my 11-speed 105 bike with no problems (done Paris-Brest-Paris with this) but for 12 Speed and Di2 the opinions are divided.

Yeah, cassettes are on my list of parts that I probably will never buy from Ali again... Had to go through 3 ZTTO cassettes and 7 chains (those are also on the list) in a couple of 1000km's to realise this is not the area to save money.

Sram and Shimano for cassettes and chains since then.

Nearly finished my build.

Final result will come at the end of this week.

Goal sub 7kg will be reached - any tips to save some weight?

What did you use to hold the Di2 battery in the seatpost?

[laktattausch]

Simply a piece of foam the frame was wrapped in

You could save about 15 gramms on that ZTTO Foam Hose Liner.
The Blue Capgo anti-vibration foam (https://www.bike-components.de/de/capgo/Noise-Protection-Schaumstoffhuelle-fuer-Bremszugaussenhuelle-p60382/?o=502308-blau-2-m) is a lot lighter. It weighs about 1.5 Gramms per meter.

Sorry for making you rip apart your bike again Nice build tho!

Aren't those headset bearings 8mm height? I've measured the ones included by Hygge and they are 6.5mm

That was no problem. They sit pretty close in the frame. I had to grind the center ring which was delivered with the Avian handlebar 2 Millimeters. But that’s no problem because the material is 3D printed plastic. All sits pretty snug and there is no play in the headset.

Thanks for your tip on the foam. I think I will change it when I have to change the bearings in the future. Only for that few Gramms that’s too much work

I use this one and it fits in the seat tube.

It's amazing you managed to keep the weight so low

I love seeing budget frames built with premium components.

I have just finished 600km and 7000m of climbing over 6 days on my frame riding to watch the Tour Down Under stages on some pretty poor road surfaces. So far the frame has performed above expectations.

I think they did a new fork design with changeable inserts. Picture from their last Facebook post:
