Painted Velobuild VB-R-218 XXS 50 cm
« on: January 02, 2026, 02:56:44 PM »
Hi, I am selling a Velobuild VB-R-218 frameset and integrated bars. This is a rim brake frameset and meant for Direct Mount type brakes. I bought the frameset for an art project for myself and have just run out of energy and space.

The frame is an exact geometry match for a 50 cm size of the bike that it resembles. Same for the bars: they are 42 cm at the drops with a 90 mm stem length and match geometry values.

Of important note, I test fit 28 mm tires mounted on 19 mm inner width rims and there is a LOT of clearance! I was kinda wondering if i could get 30 or 32 mm tires on this with the right brakeset...

Asking $500 shipped to anywhere in the continental US.  :)

How did you get a rim brake frame from velobuild? I've got some old components lying around but it seems like no one has frames for them  :'(

I’m sorry who and who? Yeah I know it’s a bit garish hahaha. The intent was to have some line art done to make it more resemble green stems and flowers. I had some sketches mocked up but just ran out of time and direction and most importantly the intended artist and recipient hahaha.
