Me too! Race you to whoever gets it first and finds out if we made the right decision? :D

BTW I got the headset compression ring from Hygge, it is well made but it is the same thickness as the stock ring supplied in earlier iterations of the frame. This has me concerned if it will solve the rubbing of headset cover issue. As it compresses very easy with slight finger pressure, I am sure it will solve the play, not so much about the rubbing. But I am in no rush to test this.

Can you share an Ali link if it's not against the forum rules? Thanks! ;)

Beautiful bike! The more I look at it the more it looks like Colnago V4RS!  ;D

I finished building up my Model S over the weekend. I've only been able to do laps around my neighborhood so far but it feels really good. I will hopefully be able to do a real ride in the next day or two.

Hey all,

New to the forum, quick question.
I also bought the 2024 EPS Hygge model S, I'm currently in the process of building it (first time, having great fun with the internal cable routing  ;)).
Everything is going well more or less, but now I noticed that if I turn left sharply it pulls on my front derailleur cable, causing it to almost shift.

1. Is this always going to happen to some degree? I was thinking I could maybe ignore this because I'll never be turning that sharp in real life either way.
2. Now I have cable housing going from my shifters until a few mm below my front derailleur, should I stop the cable housing before exiting the frame, or does this not matter?

Thanks in advance!

I think you might have cut your cable too short... My outer housing also goes up to the derailleur. But I can move my handlebars freely all the way from left to right.

When I replace the cable with a longer one, will me shifting the front derailleur not just add or remove slack to the cable?
In other words, when I use a longer cable, will I still be able to generate enough pull on the cable to shift the derailleur? Or am I seeing this wrong?

To be clear, you will also need a longer outer housing. The outer housing rigid, so a longer outer cable will make no difference to the shifting. Just give it some slack inside the frame. This will also give you some reserve for the future.  Don't forget the dampening foam around the cables inside the frame.

Alright, that makes sense, I'll give it a try.
Thanks!

Hi all,

I have been reading this topic for the last couple of months and decided to buy a frame beginning of September. Nothing has been shipped yet and the seller doesn't give me more information. How long did it take for you guys until the frame was shipped?

I ordered from their website a few days ago but haven't heard anything yet either. But I don't expect to hear anything before the national day holidays are over. Have you had any contact with the seller?

I also ordered a Pearl white EPS frame on August 27th and waiting since then. I tried contacting them through WhatsApp and Aliexpress and they told me that the plane did not left the Hong Kong and gave me a new tracking number (?!). When tracked my order got some shipping steps in DPD application but since 24th of September nothing changed. They don't answer my messages and if they do their answer is "I will check friend". I've been waiting too long now and getting nervous. They also told me that the delay is because of the new EPS frames that it needs 10-15 days for delivery to EU countries. I guess they dropship so they probably waiting for a larger quantity of orders to avoid shipping expenses. Highly unprofessional and not great way to build a brand image.

Where did you order your frame to? EU or USA/Canada or somewhere else?

I did have contact with the seller. The answer is always "This week friend".

I ordered mine on August 19th and it was shippend on August 28th. Arrived a month later in Belgium (but was stuck in customs for two weeks).

Then I have some hope they will still ship it soon.

I am also getting nervous. But thats the choice when you order from China probably.
I ordered it to the EU.
