VeloBuild VB-TT-023

[Betonn]

Just ordered the frameset. Requested for painting, Doc Hudson blue (Cars inspired). Cant wait to build up the bike with the knowledge shared in this thread over the years. 

Build idea:
1x setup SRAM Force AXS RD
SRAM Blips on base bar and extension
54T with Geoid Power meter, 11-33 SRAM cassette
Mechanical braking (for ease of traveling) brand still tbd.
Wheelset tbd. (closed disc in rear for sure)
Tires 28mm vs 30mm tbd.
Bottom bracket tbd.

Saw some interesting 3D-printed tool box, BTA systems, bridges + garmin mounts in the thread. Definitely will be testing some of those.

which kind of filament did you use to 3d print? does PLA work good? 

Id go for PETG, higher melting point and a bit more elasticity to it so it should flex more when PLA may crack instead of give.

Bonjour,

Avez-vous une estimation approximative du budget global pour l'ensemble du projet ?

I've just ordered the frame in a size small. Going to build it up with 13 speed XPLR.

Not sure how long it's going to take to arrive.

Is there a manual included with all the torque specs?

Will I need an adapter to run a 160mm front rotor?


Has anyone else built it using 13 speed XPLR and did you use a wide crankset or standard?

I'm thinking of doing 1x13 XPLR as well. Update with your build progress!
In terms of the crank, I'm confused myself about it. I think SRAM says a 1x crank can be used with XPLR derailleurs for chain stays 415mm and longer and road cranks should be used for 414mm and shorter which this frame falls under.
