VeloBuild VB-TT-023

[DeanG]

Anyone from Germany order the bike ? Any issues with importing?

[klindsey00]

Thanks and I have emailed them already 
Tagoola have also said   

Regarding TT wheels, we now have a new model available.
930±40g，36T Ratchet


(Edited for typo)

What is the pricing on that?

[NWA-Tri]

$620 but with a 1 month lead time.

There’s also DFS. Detail in the attachment
They have a lead time of 10 days.

Would be good to hear what you’re also looking at.

Are this wheels the one from XMCarbonspeed or the ones from Tagoola?

The attachment was from DFS and is the same on their website. https://dfscarbonwheels.myshopify.com/products/dfs-tt-disc-wheels-ud-raw-weave-920g-weight-45t-ratchet-competition-grade-carbon-fiber-disc-wheels

The first attachment was from Tangoola.

In the end I went for the Rear discs UXL from DFS and a UXL 60mm deep front wheel. I'm in the UK, so I expect rubbish weather and the handling difference, means I can remain longer in aero position on 60mm, then I potentially could do for 80mm.

The foam in the armrests is worn out—where can I get new ones?

My Velobuild TT in size M is finished and rides incredibly well – it's lightning fast!

The color is exposed carbon with a glossy clear coat and custom decals (which Velobuild produced for an additional fee and applied under the clear coat).

TRP brakes (with SRAM Blips)
SRAM XPLR rear derailleur (54/10-36)
SRAM Rival E1 Powermeter
ELITE EDGE 2.0 (65mm)
12cm of Spacers

Custom-designed toolbox
AeroCovers on the spacers
BTA for the Velobuild handlebars
All parts are 3D printed.

Do you have the STL for those aerocovers for the spacers?

I'm currently on vacation and don't have access to the CAD program. I'll get back to you later.

Can you also customize the toolbox for an S-frame?

Good morning everyone,

coming back here after a few months away from the forum.

My TT was initially built with the original front end but with 9 cm of spacers. Later I bought the Winow aerobar, which looks very similar to the FastTT one. Since they are flat, I also had to buy the angled spacer block from Winow to give them some tilt.

Because my bike is built with Shimano, I currently have some adjustment limitations due to cable length. I still need to decide whether I will disassemble everything and replace the cables, or simply replace the whole groupset.

My frame was purchased in 2024 and the derailleur hanger seems to be the same one used on the VB268 road frame. It does not look like a UDH to me. Has this part been updated on newer versions, or is it actually possible to mount a UDH there? I’m asking because installing a 13-speed SRAM derailleur could be an interesting option.

I’m also open to suggestions for systems/solutions to mount a front hydration setup.

If anyone has questions regarding the bike build or any component, such as the Winow aerobar, feel free to ask!

It should be doable in CAD with a fair amount of effort. After my vacation, I'll send you a PM. We can then exchange the necessary information and geometries.
