I have to check if my bb has 12 or 16 teeth. Otherwise this one will not work. I only see 50mm with 16 teeth, no 49mm with 16 teeth only with 12 teeth. Not sure why but maybe a 50mm will also work?

Thanks for helping out!

You can have a look at one of my previous post. I answered it. If you have bought the BB from LC, you can take the 50mm-16T.

Yeah i have the bb from senicx. Not sure how many teeth since i can't find that information online on my working pc. Will check it at home.

Yes, ZIPP 303 XPLR & Goodyear Slick 40mm  ;D

Can you measure the real width of those tires on that rim, please? Using a caliper, if possible... Thanks!

I'll be building mine soon. I plan on making a 1x12/13 groupset. If anyone has done the same thing, I'd be interested to hear what parts you used. (sram, wheeltop, Ltwoo)

POTOOOOOOOO

Quick question for those with a 52 and an in-line seatpost.

Would you mind measuring from the centre of the bb to the top of the seatpost cradle when the post is inserted to its minimum mark.

I need to make sure I can get a 74cm saddle hight without going past the minimum insertion.


Many thanks

Going to use a SRAM Force E1, Garbaruk, Raketa 1x12Mashup:
Force E1 Crank with Raketa 42T Chainring
SRAM 10-52 1295 Cassette
SRAM Rival D1 XPLR Derailleur with Garbaruk Cage & Pulleys
SRAM XX1 Chain.

Except the new Chainring and Crankset I’ve used this combo on another bike and I really liked it.
I pedal at high cadence (100-105) thus the fairly small chainring.

The rim is exactly 40 mm wide and the tire is 39 mm wide at 2 bar.

If you don't mind me asking how is the fitment on the storage door? I'm still indecisive if is worth going with the storage or not. Thanks.

My storage compartment door fits perfectly and I'm really glad I chose this option 👌

It's something around 770 mm from center BB to center sattle rails. A bit hard to measure while I don't removed my 15 mm SB seat post.

Don't get confused, first picture it's just for how I measured it ;)

Here are the first pics from Wendy. My 56er frame is ready for take off to Germany. The colours are not really easy to take good pictures...but it's a first impression.

Ive been waiting for your pics as i havent put my order in for the same paint scheme in a 50. It looks better than I expected! I like that its more chrome forward than a regular silver. Congrats on the pick up and am looking forward to your complete build.

A lot of words to say you don’t know nothing about T-Type Derailleurs.
I don’t want to be salty but it’s impressive to see some people in this thread with ZERO knowledge trying to explain / solve problems. Please educate yourself before doing it with others. It’s dangerous. (And no, this not only addresses you)

To solve the problem:
- measure the width of the frame and compare it to sram specifications
- check the SRAM T Type Videos. They are very helpful.
- if you got another UDH frame, compare it to the LC.
- did you torque it to specific torque?
- the plastic insert/washer is installed correctly and the silver part of the derailleur is perfectly fine.
- if the frame is not wide enough I would try to install washers. BUT this can cause problems and may result in failures. Personally I’d go with washers on both sides until everything sits flush.
- do you got an original UDH dropout? Try to install that and compare it to the Derailleur.
- UDH is a standard. You either use a UDH Dropout to use a non Direct Mount Derailleur OR a Direct mount derailleur.
- there should not be a crack - T-Types sit flush on frame and washer. No matter if it’s MTB (GX, XX) or XPLR 13spd

My frame should arrive next week. I can check XPLR 13 Speeds, MTB T-Type and various UDH Dropouts. Also I can compare it to different UDH Frames and send these exact measure of dropouts.

Yes, yes you are being salty!  Various UDH is a contradiction in terms.  Either a dropout is UDH, or it is not. 

If you think I'm factually wrong, in any part of what I've said, instead of talking like a walking penis, you educate all of us with better information.  So, Salty, yes.

Have you got any good information, or are you just blowing snot?

POTOOOOOOOO

Well that’s not exactly true. Factor use UDH but modified the frame to be narrower.
It means a regular mech and hanger are more compact as they would be on a non UDH frame, and you add a spacer for the UDH mech to fit.

So no, UDH is not the standard it was designed to be. Manufacturers are modifying it to suit their specifications.
