VeloBuild VB-TT-023

[ngthanhphuc]

I all, I am considering buying the VB tt 023 as well. I am 190 with 87 cm inseam so kind of "short legs". I am really in doubt if it would fit me and would therefore love to hear if someone was able to give any advice on fit? Furthermore is any one aware if it is possible to mount a BTA system?

I see that the Geometry of the Velobuild TT-023 are similar to those of Trek Speed Concept. You can check which size fits you with Trek and then buy a similar size in TT-023

I am 187cm and also have shorter legs respective to my torso and on the L frame (previously rode an XL Trek SC). Can feel somewhat 'small' when out saddle and riding but thats not a biggie at all. Unless you can ride a super slammed position, ask for at least 1 more set of the 5-10-20mm spacers.

Did you go for it? I am 186cm with 91cm legs and I fear the L is too small because of my inseam. I still think this frame is the best option out there if it fits.

I am new to building bikes, and I am looking for a BB for the VB TT 023. The measurements on the website says 86.5. I am doing a sram build and can only find a 85.5mm T47 Sram dub BB. Can I go with that?

Thank you!

Yes, think I might receive it in the coming week - will update

the VB frame is out for me. VB doesn't even answer messages.
New one in the mix is the Elves Falath. It's an aero bike. But they have a nice TT setup. But need to dig deeper...

if you are considering a tri-mod falath, take note of sebastan kienle tri-mod scott foil (ttx38)

Can you elaborate on that, I'm very interested?

this was Kienle's custom mod Foil for the Norseman Tri.
tt-x38 have similar geo to Foil.
granted that his foil had custom seat post, but at least x38 seatpost isnt setback like on Falath

talked to elves. yolu can turn the seatpost by 180 degree. that should give you some flexibility

Hello all,

did someone messure the real seat angle range of this frame?

I have a buddy who purchased a Yoeleo TT frame for his road bike setup. Elite racer. Although he only uses the bike for training. A total diesel of a rider. Freakishly fast on the flats with his setup.

Him and I have extremely similar heights, wingspans, and proportions. Super flexible and long arms.

He suffers from the same exact dilemma I have which is needing a lot of reach for my height. But without the unnecessary stack height that comes with larger frames.  He's been trying to get me on a TT frame for years. Lots of reach, no toe overlap, low stack, more balanced position over the frame. And most importantly no need for a 130-140mm stem that affects handling/steering.

I've had my eye on this VB TT frame since last summer. But it's quite the undertaking to experiment with a TT frame for road, only to potentially discover afterwards that was a bad idea.

that yeoleo T9 is the tt912, though that pic uses some aftermarket fork.
my tt912 is a tad large as i need the reach (tantan only have 80mm n 100mm stem). had tantan offers 120-130 stem, i would gone 1size down.

you have the ttx38, thats close to a foil, and foil to last gen plasma (as close a road frame to a tt frame)
