Hygge Aero Carbon Frame

[lookingandbrowsing]

Hey all,
I've built my Hygge model S (the new EPS version) back in October and have been very happy with it.
However today I was doing some coble roads and suddenly my garmin mount (the one that came with the frame and handlebars) snapped. Luckily my Garmin device is okay but I'm pretty bummed out by this. Does anyone know some good alternatives that are a bit more reliable?

Mine failed as well
Changed to a aluminum version

[Rechabeam]

Do you have a link to the one you bought?
I bought the aluminium alloy one from Riderace suggested here but it doesn't fit on the the Hygge handlebars.
(the second bolt perfectly aligns with the part between the two bolt gaps on the mount).

Small update to my original build post from a few weeks back. After the first few rides I noticed that my seat post was slipping — I only weigh 59 kilos and have never experienced this before. In my case, liberally applied fiber grip pate inside the seat tube and 6nm on the clamp bolt has been enough to prevent further slippage for the last 250 miles. Ymmv.

Hi, I've just started cycling and am getting into building my own bike.

I have two questions:

1. Can you confirm that it's possible to mount 32mm wheels? (I saw someone did it; are there any updates?)

2. What's a fair price for the frame? Will it drop significantly during the November 11 sales?

My tires measure 30mm and they fit with room to spare, so 32mm should fit, but depending on the rim a 32mm could become a 35mm in real life, so that might not fit any more...

I don't think Hygge lowers its prices much during sales, but you should be able to use a coupon. And there are so many sales these days you would be crazy to pay full price on expensive items like this. I think you should be able to get 80-100EUR off during sales.

Disappointing Communication from Hygge After Ordering My Frame

Hey folks,
I wanted to share my experience with Hygge so far.

I placed my order for a Model S frameset (size S, white color) on July 3rd. Nothing custom, just a standard configuration.
We discussed frame and handlebar sizes, and everything seemed great and they told me the order would be shipped in 2–3 days, and delivery to Europe usually takes 15–20 days.

For the first few days, communication was smooth. I asked a few follow-up questions, and they replied promptly.

However, on July 7th, I reached out again via their website chat to ask for a status update. They told me the order had not been shipped yet, but would be sent out in 2 days (on the 9th).

So I waited.

On the evening of July 9th, I checked in again just to confirm shipment, but since then, complete silence.
No replies via website chat, no answer on WhatsApp (though I can see my message was delivered), and no response on Instagram, where they are actively posting stories and content.

To be clear: I wouldn’t be following up this much if they hadn’t given me specific shipment dates themselves. If they had just said “it might take 10 days to ship,” I’d be totally fine with that. But being told one thing and then being ghosted feels… odd.

I really like their bikes, and I'm still excited about the build, but their post-purchase communication has left a bad impression.

Has anyone else had a similar experience with them?

Would love to hear your thoughts

Hi, for those who have already assembled the frame, what advice would you give to a newbie?

Thanks!

[reckonair]

I love the look of this frame, at 194cm I think it'd be too small for me, I currently ride an XL endurance geo frame.

Anyone got any recommendations for a bigger racing, crit frame?

Thanks!

So, yesterday they sent me the tracking number. Finally, because I was already very worried. When I receive the frame here (Spain), I will definitely write here an update

Hey, got my hygge model s frame today and was very surprised about the handlebar, they sent me a different model. It's their new aerone model. Actually I like the design and clean appearance of the previous one much more. Don't know if I'll be happy with the new version...
What do you guys think about it?new version is definitely lighter.

[Mu0815]

I ordered mine at 21st of June, it got send out 4th of July and I received it in Germany at the 22nd of July.

For me the shape of the new one looks way better. Only change I want is to remove that sticker on the left arm and replace it with same dot pattern as on the right.
